My Favorite Ranch

When you have grown up on a farm, things just can't get much better than going back.  Now, I don't live on a farm now, but thankfully, one of my good friends does.  My favorite thing to do is to help with their bull sale in the spring.  After a three year absence - I made it back!

As I rounded that last bend of the gravel road, I took in all the beauty and remembered the reason why I loved this place so much.  I love the miles of hilly pasture as far as the eye could see, bovines everywhere and reconnecting with people I have come to know well.  I truly missed the past years of absence from this sale.

I did not help sort bulls this year, water or feed, but I did get to help prepare and serve the buyer lunch.  I loved every minute of it, and hope to be able to return each year.  Here's to the foundation of everything: agriculture!  Thank God for the farmer!!
