My Therapist Is a Big Ox; Who's Yours?

Farm Videos
If you crave entertainment, you are invited to join me on regular tours of my farm. I'll conduct a video tour of farm operations and might even show you, Bruce, fixing farm machinery (while he tries to avoid me). I'll take you around the farm. Join me when I feed the cows or visit with the calves. It'll be fun! Watch for my videos on Facebook and here on our website.
