Never did - folks are still alive. When I was in high school I realized that the family farm was going to be a huge battle between kids and step kids. I knew I would never farm it. I didn't want my folks farm. It was livestock only and I enjoy the crop side. When I went to college the folks sold the farm and had a sale. They moved into a maintenance free community and still live in that house.
I got out of college and got a job teaching in the suburbs of Kansas City. I played city boy for a while but got that itch. I started saving money and bought my own farm. I begged and pleaded and found an agreement with an aging farmer who doesn't have family to take over the century farm. We run a good sized herd and crop around 1000 acres.
Dad comes to the farm and I always find a tractor job for him. I bought an 8N like he had when we started farming. He's beginning to show signs of dementia, but the smile on his face when he's on that tractor lets me know I've made his day. I'm not sure he could have a better time and that makes me feel good.
