The home cooked meals prepared from fresh farm ingredients and the lost time of houses without electricity and running water made us appreciate what we had. The chapter 'Days with Dad' is like the farm version of 'taking the kids to work day', but with a twist. While many days began with hard work, they always ended with the celebration of a good day of learning nature, Dad's favorite eating places, beer joints and local Mart estab.…
