I am not saying that any member here isn't a hard worker, although ranch, farm , or dairy, or country living, whatever u want to call it, is a different animal , when it comes to hard work.
Going to visit the Grandparents on there farm in Iowa was a rough but good experience for us as kids. 10 years old and helping shovel the last of the grain out the silo with Grandpa was vacation on the farm. There was no standard square shovel, just the grain shovels that are 18" wide not 12". They always ate Breakfast, Lunch, Supper and then Dinner when work is done for the day. Been trying to do the same Myself, takes 4 meals a day to keep the energy going. 40 days in a row 12+ hour days for me just like they are doing back on the farm for spring planting.
