Mini Van, My pickup.
I do not need a pickup, I have my trusty old whit/mud colored mini van, and I haul hay, goats, sheep, produce, guard dogs, feed and more farm stuff. But I am sure that any farmer with respect for her self would not think twice about using her fuel efficient mini van for all the farm hauling needs.
HA; HA, good joke, but I use my van for alot of things, even dirty job, that most neighbors would use their fancy pickups for. Or maybe they would not??? As long as it is traffic safe, and I will not get stucked, why not. I have to use a log book to claim the miles driven for farm use, so I know where I have been.
Tonight I went out in the hayfield, and got some small balles for our renagade cow herd. The Hudinis of our farm, they will crawl, jump or stomp thru, down or under most types of fence. So that is why they are in the permant pen with cattle panel fence. They have not be able to get out of there, yet.....
Our peacocks have started to talk in the mornings. Our daughter and I enjoy their calls as we get ready for school. We are up before the sun, too early for a small child. But I guess it is life, but I do not enjoy waking her up at 6am. I do belive this is my last year working 2 jobs. We are planing for me to stay at the farm full time from next summer. If we do not plan, well we can not see if we can make it work. Money and healt insurance are the only 2 opsticals. One of them more than the other. The price of healt insurance, well
PS the spell check is absent, so I am sorry for any spelling errors. I am a Norske, with dyslecsia, blond and a woman. So it is sometimes a good mix, well other time, not.
Take care, eat good food, grown in good soil, by good people.
