Technology And The Old Farmer

 When I was young on the farm, I started driving horses to do the field work. As things changed so did the equipment we used. From horses to tractors and so on. But as I think about my last encounter with new technology (feedburner.com). I am amazed at what you can do on the internet. We have a farm website http://www.clineandsonsfarm.com that has links to a bunch of e-books, some I have written. We have a photo gallary that has over (500) pictures in it. There is even a link to our founding documents and quotes from our founding fathers. This is a long way from those horses I was telling you about.

 

In the old days you mostly worked alone. We always had good neighbors, but they too were busy working their farms. You generally saw your neighbors at church on Sundays or at prayer meetings. Sometimes you would get together for weddings, birthdays, funerals, or doing very large projects that required every hand to pitch in. They were times to share your thoughts and ideas with them. And to see what was happening in the area. BUT NOW, I am writing on my computer in my e-mail program that will be sent to my blog site and published automatically. It also will be syndicated to who know were. The first telephone I saw was hanging on a wall and you had to crank it up to get it to work. And now, WOW!

 

It is a great time to be alive. All is well down on the farm.

When Good Cooks Get Together

I can remember when I was young on the farm, the neighbors getting together to work and to eat. I can remember the tables piled high with about every thing you could imagine to eat. Boy oh boy could those women cook. That is what I remember best, the food. Each of the ladies had a special recipe that they took pride in preparing. We would eat huge amounts of food, but we also worked it off too. You seldom ever saw a fat farmer.

We have come across a large collection of cook books in PDF format. We have put them together in four bundles. We have a pitch page with a good selection of e-books to look over. If you would like to read more about it, here's the link, http://www.clineandsonsfarm.com/hopelink.html. There is also a cook book for diabetics and good recipes to help them. We also have some cook books for valentines day, and Christmas. Our farm site is a great starting point to check out these offerings. Simply go to, http://www.clineandsonsfarm.com.

All is well down on the farm.

Old Farmer's Book of Poetry

Well I've gone off and done it now. I have put together the poems and ballads I have written over the years into an ebook. I have always liked writing poetry. I wrote my first one when I was twelve years old. My oh my, where has the years gone by to. Our farm site, http://www.clineandsonsfarm.com hosts the links to our pitch page for this ebook of poetry and ballads. I call the ebook, Through The Eyes of The Old Farmer His Poems And Ballads. You can go directly to the pitch page for more information, the link is, http://www.clineandsonsfarm.com/poems7.html.

There are times when the human heart cries out to be heard and then there are times when silence is the order of the day. My writing seem to run the emotional roller coaster. It all depends on the mood and again the heart.

In this ebook I wrote a ballad called The Ballad of Carl And Ab And the Chicken Accelerator. If I am allowed to say so myself, it's pretty funny, I was in stitches while I was writing it.

The ebook is filled mostly with serious writings. I say filled, there are twenty-four poems and ballads in it. More about the ebook and my writings later, I got to go to bed, morning comes early in the country. All is well down on the farm.
