I'm in the NW part of the Buckeye State and whenever I buy milk I have to ask the clerk if there is a shortage of cows or something. :)

This week I went and bought feed for my cattle.... It went up from 8.05 to 8.55 Feed for the chickens went up too. The only good thing is right now we are selling corn and in the first time in a very long time the price is good. They are predicting that next year for us it would cost us 350.00 per acre to put out corn.... Now thats scary.

Issachar sounds we may be a few counties away from each other.

I'm in Wood county and would love to visit a farm someday. :) This Spring I'm hoping to take a trip to Hocking Hills so maybe ...... just maybe, I'll see a farm on the way.

I'm in the Annie Oakely Area, Darke Co. You'll love Hocking... You may never come home.

Oh, I've been there many times which is why I can't wait to go back. Been there in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. Tent camped in the heat, the frost and snow. :) We have six children ... 4 are married. Two at home can live on there own for a couple days (17 & 14). My wife of 36 years and I have never been down there alone ... we've never been adults without children ... Lord willing, it's be a fun time. :)

So you're actually in west central Ohio. Well, if I get an opportunity to go down to the Creation Museum, maybe I'll be able to stop by and say hi since your just off 75. :)
