For the first time in four days, I have the chance to do more than run home, do chores, sleep, pack up for the next day, and drive back. Whew.

I’m new to 4-H, newly married to a farmer, new to chickens, and hogs and cattle. I grew up with horses, but just mainly as a hobby, although once in a

while we’d go help an uncle with his ranch; I grew up in Colorado, lived in Wyoming, but was transplanted to Baltimore, Maryland, and Trenton, New Jersey,

for a while. Boy, am I glad to be back! When we were there, people would ask me what was the same, and I’d say “nothing.”
