| | Howdy, Saturday I cut our hay again. While I was tedding it (that's when you use a tedder rake to spread out the hay so it will dry better) the rake broke. Ya, it's not a good sign when your driving along and you look behind you to see the rake turning over with pieces flying every where. I turned it off as soon as I could, but the damage was done. So there I was with a fifteen acre field of hay needing tedding. Sunday morning we found out that one of our neighbors (I say "neighbor, but I think he lives 10 or 15 miles away) was going to let us borrow his rake. After church we thought he was going to call us to come pick it up, but what do you know he brings it himself! Not only did he bring it but he raked the whole field for us! That is what I call being a true neighbor. So once again God helps me out through some good people. If I had a choice I wouldn't live any where else in the world because of the good people here. Let me add a side note here: DO NOT HIDE ON TOP OF CABINETS, THEY FALL DOWN WHEN YOU DO. A week or so ago the electricity went out, so we began playing hide and seek in the house. I found a great hiding spot on the very top of a 6.5 ft. cabinet. I struggled up (it was a titer fit than I had thought.) It held me for about 4 seconds then everything started giving way. It's not a good feeling to have everything under you start falling down, trust me. I began wondering how the head lines in the paper would read, "Young man dies after falling through cabinet while playing hide and seek." But I survived. The top two shelves and everything in them was a mess though. After the lights came back on, I banged the thing back to gather, so all's well that ends well. Semper Fi!, Joseph |
