Garrett, what happened?

Oh I see, you were going too fast for the corner

Anna and Nancy, you can put the swing on the chains.

Susan and grandson Sam

Anna, just go ahead and use the spatula for a fork

Joey, where are you going with that board? And, Nancy why are you laughing?

Oh, I get it, he used the board to wallop me on the behind...

Garret checked the mailbox at the feed mill

Matt loaded feed in the 'orange crush' feed truck

Matt and Garrett on the way to feed cows

Feeding cows

Matt made a conveyor system for the orange crush. Here, Matt put on a few finishing touches. Farmers are part engineer, part economist, part mechanic, part banker, part agronomist, part vet, part weather forecaster, and, of course, part general laborer.
