But I’m like a fish out of water, down here on the farm

Shawshank, September 30, 2020

So first things first. I’m about 8.5 hours late on this post, but I’ll get to that. Yesterday we drove into SlightlyBiggerTown so I could take my written test to start the process to get my drivers license Long story short, with a quick transaction to my local (USA local DMV), I got my license transferred up here! I don’t have to take any testing, or even have to parallel park. In a couple weeks I should have a envelope in the mail with my DL.

I drove us home yesterday afternoon.

This morning, I was up an hour early, because I was going with my dad to the farm, to spend the day farming with him. I’m a real farmer now:

I PEED ON A TREE, YALL

And I also ran back into town to get some parts for a tractor that broke down. But before all that, I found an awesome radio station on Sirius; 90s on 9. Omg. Serious turn up the music and sing along, which I did, loudly and terribly.

We farmed for about 4 hours, but then the rains came. We got rained out. Hard to harvest when it’s pouring out.

I had a lot of fun, hanging out with my dad. I even drove a tractor!

But I think I’m just gonna relax for the rest of the night. Happy Wednesday!
