** A little girl was sitting next to her grandfather as he read her a bedtime story. From time to time she would take her eyes off the book reach up and touch his wrinkled cheek. She would touch her own cheek after she touched his. After a little while of thinking, she asked, “Grandpa, did God make you?” He looked at her and said, “Yes, sweetheart, God made me a long time ago.” She paused for a few seconds and then asked, “Grandpa, did God make me too?” He replied, “yes, indeed pumpkin, God made you just a little while ago.” Feeling their respective faces again, she whispered to him, “God’s getting better at it, isn’t he?”

Nice run of hay for today’s sale. Quality was a little better than before. Market for alfalfa of the same quality was off by about $10. Grass- the market was steady to weaker. Bedding was steady. Not a large buyer crowd as buyers are still busy in the fields silaging.

** This year will be the first year we’re not going to Hawaii because of Covid-19. Normally we don’t go because we can’t afford it.
**During my physical examination, my doctor asked me about my physical activity level. I described a typical day. “Well, yesterday afternoon, I took a 5 hour walk about 7 miles through some pretty rough terrain. I waded along the edge of a lake. I pushed my way through brambles. I got sand in my shoes and my eyes. I avoided standing on a snake. I climbed several rocky hills. I took a few “leaks” behind some big trees. The mental stress of it all left me shattered. At the end of it all, I drank eight beers.” Inspired by the story, the doctor said, “Wow, you must be one heck of an outdoorsman!” “No,” I replied, “I’m just a really shitty golfer.”
