I thought bailing hay was hard unti I helped pick and hang tobacco. Of course I had to try one of those green leaves to chew. Never been that dizzy ever.

Yeah, when you think about it farmers and ranchers work their butts off as a matter of course, and EVERYONE needs them. They oughta get a LOT more credit!! And we'd have better stuff without these big conglomerates I bet!!

Doncha think they deserve some thanks for what they done. Theres lots of songs about cowboys and about truckers and all their daring deeds and battles won---But no one sings a song about Oyster farmers-- Doncha think they deserve some thanks for what they done. --At 2 am they're out there picking oysters- just so all them little oyster bars can run- It takes a lot of heart to be an Oyster farmer cause when the north wind blows its really not much fun. I hav'nt got a thing against other workers- they help to make this country number one-- 'fact nothing could be finer than a song about coal miners but that don't help those oyster people none--Doncha think they deserve some thanks for what they done?

I have been a contractor since 1991. I roof houses mostly but I build pole barns and build additions also. I am well known and I do not advertise or even give out business cards. I have a busy word of mouth business.
