Dear Carrie,
I just wanted to congratulate you and others on that neat magazine I received called Ag Pride. I read all the stories once and some of them twice.
I really liked the one on HomeGrown on page 46.
I am one month away from my 88th birthday and on the same farm I bought when I was only 22 and fresh out of the Army with $800 in my pocket. I’m on Box Elder Creek, right north of the Windmill truck stop and run cattle along the Interstate right across from Coca Cola and All around Harley Davidson all the way to Black Hawk (near Rapid City, SD).
