Yep, sounds about right... I got my Eagle Scout at 13, and this next year am starting on an AS Degree from a local school, which I will have by the time I am 18...

Mom tells me I could be anything in the world (money money money) and I keep telling her I want to be a farmer, always have... She finally came out and told me the other day that "You couldn't survive in farming, just like everyone else, give up that dream and do something more logical" Well he!!, all of the farmers in the world might has well give up then huh!?!?!

I remember when I was at my Eagle Award Dinner, all of the Eagles from that year were at one place (159 boys), and we all had to take turns going up in front of everyone and telling them a little about our selves. My name being an "F" I was about in the middle of the group.

Every kid that had gone up there said that they were going to make video games, be a pop star, scientist, all of these BIG professions, and every time they would say what they wanted to be, they would be done, the crowd would clap and cheer, and they would walk off stage.

Well, the boy before me was 15 at the time and said that he wanted to be a Nuclear Chemist (what???) and the crowd went nuts, the stood up and CHEERED for this kid, so I went up, I was 13, told every one I made a huge bridge for my project, and then the man asked me, "Bryce, what are you going to be when you grow up?"

I looked out over the crowd with a smile and said, I AM GOING to be a farmer. My parents were the only ones that clapped...

Sad world that we live in, but that's just the way it goes... Bryce

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
