From a baby until about 10 years old we used to spend the summers on an
organic farm (probably 500 acres or so). Nothing fresher that fresh milk
every morning for breakfast with fresh eggs and corn right off the stalk,
etc. Ringing the farm bell, after gathering eggs and milking the cows, to
wake up everybody...

Sad problem was the farmers kids wanted nothing to do with the farm biz
so he had to sell it to some yuppies who also wanting nothing to do with
farming and turned the main house into a nightclub or something and
abondoned everything else. Last I heard it had changed hands again.

It's only about two hours away but I'd rather keep my memories and not
risk pulling into a walmart or something
