My dad had a small 20 acre farm when I was a kid. I grew up around mini-dirt bikes and during the off farming seasons it was a blast letting loose full throttle without worrying about hitting anything.

thats awesome! Yeah I admire hard working people like that.
Their environment is a product of them, instead of the other way around.

What did he grow?

Oh, he rented most of the acreage out to the neighbor. He kept a few acres for us, and he grew strawberries, green beans, corn, potatoes and other stuff there. It also had a huge apple tree, a couple pear tress and several mulberry trees. It was awesome always having snacks available for part of the year. This was in Indiana, although I haven't lived there since the early 90's.

Also - Where are you from? just curious.
