I miss Farmer Frank

He had some serious health issues last year that he is recovering from, but his blog posts on farming had thinned out anyway.

If he had still be an active farmer, well, it looks like he'd be posting about another wet Spring vexing the Midwest planters.  A coupla years back it seemed to take forever to get the seed into to the fields.  Just mud mud mud everywhere.

I liked getting the details of the nitty gritty of such an occupation that I am so far removed from but so vital to our very existence.  Making food from dirt and water.  It's just so fascinating to me to hear well written stories about another occupation.  I don't think I can make my system administrator job half as interesting on my best day, in a post.

I met Frank at the Pittsburgh NRA convention.  I hope you are still improving, sir.
