Opening day of the Shattuck FFA greenhouse was today. \u00a0It was packed FULL of green. \u00a0And we sold a pile. \u00a0It went really well. But, we’ve still got a lot. \u00a0We had a lot of customers from other towns. \u00a0I like it. \u00a0I am still learning about this side of agriculture but it is fun to see what is in demand and use some ideas to teach about value-added products. \u00a0You know something is going right when the kids are buying the projects before the sale.<\/p>\n
Some boys finished up welding some projects to take to a local consignment auction.<\/p>\n
Getting ready to head to state CDE contests this weekend.<\/p>\n
I see that there was a buck sale tonight. \u00a0I didn’t mean to miss it but I was dealing with goat related problems. \u00a0Which does NOT mean that I didn’t buy anything.<\/p>\n
My favorite son has hit a road bump or twelve during the past month. \u00a0He hasn’t been capable of doing much right. \u00a0Therefore, I had grounded him from driving. \u00a0Wednesday was the first day that I let him have the keys again. \u00a0And guess what, I now get to pay a deductible and get a pickup repaired. \u00a0Nobody was hurt, but dang it still pisses a dad smooth off.<\/p>\n
The insurance agent that called from “corporate” had questions. \u00a0 “Sir, how long has this child lived with you?”<\/p>\n
I replied, “Since he was hatched.” \u00a0She actually laughed and then asked, “So, he lives with you?”<\/p>\n
“Yes. \u00a0But ma’am, if you’ve have ever had a teenage son, then you know that there are definitely times that you would like him to live elsewhere.” , said ME!<\/p>\n
One thing about a teenage son that knows that he is in trouble, some work gets done around the place. \u00a0Barns are clean. \u00a0And a bonus of his being grounded–I haven’t had a big fuel bill to pay at the local quick stop.<\/p>\n
Banners & Backdrops this weekend. \u00a0Sounds like a really good line up of goats that will be there.<\/p>\n
