Again, I have made a decision, sort of, and it is a tie of sorts. This is a tough one, and I think it can have multiple answers. What probably leads by a nose for me is the view when all the cows have been turned to grass, all the hog feeders are full, and the crops are growing and doing well. I think for each farmer that view over his or her own farm is the best, but, that doesn't happen every year, at least not in Kansas, sometimes you want to close your eyes as you drive by your pastures and fields because they are either burning up, or unplanted. What does happen every year, for better or worse, is the first and last calf born(or pig, lamb, or foal), I am always glad for the first, and glad for the last, both are great views. The first and last pass of the year with both the planter and the combine, again, both views are great, for different reasons. As I have typed, I think I have discovered a better view, one I have yet to see, that is, the view of the last payment ever to a banker be it on a land note, operating note, equipment note, or livestock note, yes, I think that has to be it, the greatest view is the last bank payment. Sadly, for me, this will probably be about 2 weeks before Mrs. KF writes a check to plant me under the Kansas prairie.......hopefully 40 or 50 years from now!!
