Listening to @ODELL and @Marty Bent on RHR. Excited to hear that Phoenix Wallet is coming back to the US App Store.
Loved using the wallet before and looking forward to it again.
Great company from all I have heard. Completely respect the decisions that were made to temporarily step away from US markets.
That wind is fierce today. Have to respect the power of nature.
Took the kids to the basement so if a tornado comes through we don’t have to haul them down in the middle of the night.
Stay safe everyone.
Amazing to see how well the baby calf is doing. Born right before the winter storm at beginning of January here in Missouri. Has been getting down to single digits with negative windchill.
We let the momma take care of him and he is doing great out in the field.
No pampering. He is a great and tough little guy.
Quote from a recent podcast “heard many times ‘you don’t have to farm how your grandfather did’. But I heard recently the other half of the quote ‘but you shouldn’t forget why your grandfather did what he did’.”
This strikes a cord with me. Not because I am part of a multigenerational farm family. But because I see the lack of knowledge passed on because we miss out on generational living.
Additionally, it is well documented that farming is a tough business and the level of debts burdening farmers is truly astounding.
I wonder how much of this is a direct result of the missing generational knowledge that has been lost over the recent few generations?
Remember that in the commercial space, no one loses money on their step of the process. It is all factored in somewhere.
Homesteaders need to do this too.
Either it is a hobby and you are spending money, or all your costs are covered.
And I don’t know many people who want to scale up their hobbies to lose more money by selling to more customers.
Friends just launched their site for tallow based skincare products.
I have personally used the sunscreen and it was phenomenal.
If you are in the market, consider sending them some love.
