For the past few years, my wife has been intrigued by the proliferation of “tiny houses.” You know…the super-small houses, usually built on a trailer, that allow people to own their own home for a fraction of what an average one would cost.

Sometimes you just have to laugh at folks who claim to know what they are talking, or writing, about.

Bud (not his real name) is not unlike most farmers I know. As soon as he purchases a new piece of equipment, he has to try it out absolutely as soon as possible. Such was the case last week when the machinery dealer delivered a new, hydraulic, bale unroller for his tractor.

Life on the farm isn’t glamorous, and it isn’t always fun, but there are times when you just can’t help but smile and soak it all in.

Extra, extra, read all about it! Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow this year!

Having traded farm trucks last week, I was tasked with the chore of cleaning out my old truck before taking it back to the dealer to swap for the new one. I know that it doesn’t sound like much of a job…unless you’ve seen the inside of my truck.

This might come as a big shock to some, but I don’t care too much for PETA, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

It’s February on the farm and love is definitely in the air around here.
