Made a trip with Dad to the farm. My first time back since Grandma had to move in to town. It was strange to see the setting of so many warm memories, now forlorn and cold.
Perhaps I give a short tour to you, my friend
The one on the right.
The big sheds are new, after all the old buildings except the barn came out. My favorite building was the old pig shed, where Grandpa wrote out various figuring & math problems on the wall in pencil.
The folding ramp on the front steps is for my cousin's wheelchair.
Thanks for walking around with me. It's still a happy place. But... well, you understand.

Liberal arts college should be HARD.
In the Midwest, at least, these colleges have become de facto degree mills for tepid thinkers across the upper middle class. Just like a cost-cutting manufacturer, they lowered production standards on a formerly great product.
My own experience at one of these had glimmering academic high points (invariably during my hardest classes), where I experienced what should have been standard--phenomenal teaching paired with corresponding hard work by the pupil.

The Beef Thread

One man's adventure in learning how to slaughter and butcher a beef cow. Updates as they happen.
Our main work area is the slab in front of Dad's shed, where his chickens hang out. "Task: clean the slab" was left for the day before slaughter... Ambient temp 20F, but we thought the slab was still well above freezing. Wrong!

A skating rink now, but a clean one. ImageImage
