Fired up the Grill, first time for the Season

@swexsted @TrentKlarenbach Sometime,as in the 80’s the only one buying is the Bank. Historically they don’t pay too well.

@TrentKlarenbach Price correction means buying opportunity.

An observation from comments following the release of my farmland value studies last year. The farmers receptive to the concept that farmland can drop 50% or more are 60 years of age and over. The people who dismiss the concept, started farming or investing in farmland after 2007.

I will age myself a bit, President Nixon was more likeable

County Road #49, Prince Edward County will be up for reconstruction. Great news!

@farmerschneck Did the .07% get decapitaded?

I was worried!

@KeithWells6 Our dad would talk of Plowing with the Horses and walk behind in Frontenac County in the 50’s . He was paid by the furrow & at an early age learned Custom working was maybe not a Money maker.Counting furrows was sometimes an issue.

Mr 88 talking about his early years this afternoon. Hauling 6 to 8 cans of milk to cheese factory everyday by horse 2 miles. Hauling 20 bags of oats 3 miles with a team to feed mill to get ground. Carrying 100 lb bags of layer mash to second story of chicken barn. Water pumped by hand and carried up as well. Hauling firewood 3 miles to town by horse. Sold for $3 a cord.

@farmerschneck Cattle like cookies!

My gut said take a cookie on Friday. Glad I listened! #ontag sheeeee. Maybe should have taken 2?

@MaizeingPete Ouch !

Well we were buying grain ….

@woody_VA Happy birthday, enjoy your day

Finished another dance around the sun today

Still one of my favorite moments/pics as a dad/parent! Whats yours? Lets see them.

@MaizeingPete Flinch just watching

That’s nuts

@DeanPat57613010 You are like my nephew, out numbered by the Female Gender. When my brother was still with us as sick as he was the 2 would have thier own bonding fishing

@5151john No…..she’s got a lot of Irish in her. Thus, the three red headed daughters.

Muscles wants to do the 10 day Portuguese Camino Walk next winter. But I’m not invited. She says my legs are too short and I’ll just hold her up. She has a good point. I’m pretty slow. #ilikeagirlicanlookupto #agtwitter #ontag

@CanadianCowMan You might be missing the morning daylight for 6 Weeks when you need it most

I guess we just did the last time change ever…. Gonna be interesting this fall when everyone around us changes and we don’t.

@CousineauAlbert Won’t be long and the Creeks will give way here, that is lovely looking for Christmas Eve

And I thought it was supposed to be mild today. This is live right now. 5:28 pm Saturday

@Agridome @fordnation I should add there is an appreciation for the cooler morning temperatures that would be lost if the Province was to switch to Standard Time. IMO we have great benefits to DST.More demand on the grid for Air Conditioning power.

@Agridome @fordnation It’s a big Province

Do the right thing ⁦@fordnation⁩ ..stop the clock changing insanity cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

@Agridome @fordnation We people in Eastern Ontario will be Dark in December at 8:30 am if we only have Daylight Savings. We will be Light at 3:30 am in June if we are Year round Standard Time. Time change is a great ritual.

@5151john @fordnation Huh John……I don’t get it

@FoodProfessor Lies, lies, and more lies!

Received a note from an anonymous dairy farmer in Ontario this morning: “You can tell it’s the end of the month when milk delivery trucks finish their routes early…” And yet we’re told there’s no milk dumping. That disconnect is frustrating.
