75 out this AM. Should be a nice day for haying today. My guy showed up! Yes! I'll be a driving something today in a few...
Went looking at another farm yesterday, I have land fever. Unfortunate farms in my area are pretty expensive. So I would have to carry a mortgage on it and with my age, time is against outright ownership. I doubt if the kids would take it over, and as an investment, well my county is anti-business to the extreme. The place would require as much work as I have put into my current homestead over the last 12 years. That may mean an additional seriously large sum of money. On top of the dollars needed, the physical work may not happen through me. Looks like deferred taxes on the land may be an issue too. I am an acquaintance of the person selling it. With all these negatives as possible purchase goes, that is the only thing I may have going for me.
In the back of my head I hear "they don't make land anymore". And, farming is tough, boss or not, I may just go get a condo in the islands instead. LOL
Have a great day all. See you on Monday.
Rather cool down my southern VA friends way.
