  Manners for living in the country

All good words to live by Murf. They are old fashioned values that many of us grew up on but unfortunately they are going the way of the dinosaur. Common courtesy and common sense seem to be a thing of the past. In fact, with cloning, we probably have a better chance of bringing back dinosaurs than common courtesy.

I plow several of my neighbors driveways in this bad weather and have done so for many years. Half of them don't even call to say thanks. I do it because I have the ability (before a jeep, now the tractor) and they don't.
I'd never be able to make it with a snow plowing business.

I envy you and your group of friends. You have each other and in times of need that means a lot. You're all wealthy men, that's not even including your families.

Mark, welcome back, good to see you here again.

  Manners for living in the country

I'm missing the country living already. Been in my 1 acre subdivision house for 2 weeks. I miss the old country place really bad. Sigh.

I grew up in the burbs but enjoyed the last 4 years in the country. I never minded the smell. But then I was hitting up people for manure for the garden. Best fertilizer their is and nothing beats the taste of fresh picked veggie or melons straight from the garden.
