The Idaho Farmer!



Howdy! It's not easy being a farmer in the Great State of Idaho. In case you didn't know...where I live...it's known as the 'potato state'. Farmer's in Idaho are expected to produce the best potato's in the nation. They made us stop producing those Dan Quayle potatoe's because people didn't like corns with their potatoes. Me! I'm just a hard working farmer who gets up at the crack of dawn, and works hard all day. It ain't easy trudging out in the brisk morning chill to feed the chickens and break the ice off the top of the stock tank. I do it though, everyday, without fail... 'cause my animals depend on me!



I got the hay all stacked and ready for the snow to fly. I hope the upcomin' winter provides us with the moisture we will need, come summer time that is.




I reckon I'll fire up the John Deere and get some plowin done before the early evening sun disappears into the west. The days are just getting too short for me to accomplish all that needs to be done in a day. Do you hear that sound? Putt, Putt, Putt... that's me old John Deere. It's ready to go bust some clods! Watch out you clods, I'm comin' to bust you up!



Well, Good night folks, I sure hope my Giants make it to the World Series this year. Eat a baked potato tonight, Me and the little women could use your support! Ain't that right LuLu?
