What it takes to produce pastured eggs

8/26/2022

The fire truck pulled out the Landcruiser. The next day, the fire truck got stuck trying to pull out the buggy, but the red tractor was able to pull out the buggy.
The question is: who is going to pull out the fire truck now?

"I've revved and I've rocked and reversed it..."

“Oh, the radio tells me it's raining
But that I can see for myself
And they tell me a cyclone is coming
Oh, I surely could do with some help
…
Oh, I've revved and I've rocked and reversed it
Oh, I've dug at the mud on the wheels
I've kicked and I've sworn and I've cursed it
And to the good Lord I've appealed
But the line-up to heaven ain't open
I've a feeling I'm not getting through
Oh, I'll just have to lighten the load
One carton of [EGGS WITH BACON] should do”
--borrowed from the lyrics of “Send’er Down Hughie” by the great Slim Dusty

"I can see clearly now, the rain is gone"

“I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way.
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
It's gonna be a bright, bright bright, sun-shiny day!”
Just for a moment there, it looked like farm work might be possible again.

Back to the mud now.

"I'm in love with mud,
It's sad, I know, but true.
I just can't help but splash in it,
Or stomp a path right through.
...
I splatter in the grimy gloop,
I can't resist the ooze!
I run, I jump, I stamp about,
It drips into my shoes!"
The Joy!
