It isn't a bad thing at all.....

The farm has a couple barns down the road maybe 1/8th mile from the main house and barn. I love to drive by the place and see the improvements that are happening. And, at various times, I've seen the mom, the dad, and the kids (four boys) riding a bike or walking from the main farm down the road to the other barns. They don't jump in a 4-wheeler or pickup and barrell down the road like all the other modern farmers around here. Your blog brought this to mind Tom.
