I agree, that is why I am not renting out any of the permament pasture just the open ground that is used for annuals. I have too much invested to let go of my grass though at the rent I'm going to receive I have to say its tempting. I'll share crop all the unneeded hay fields with a friend of mine who could use the extra hay. This will be about 800 rolls I won't have to worry about which should give me ample time to go fishing or just screw off. With the exception of pulling up one cross fence, everything will be in place so I can expand when I want and I can use the rented cropland in the winter if I so desire. Basically all I'm doing is regrouping or as someone said today, doing a heavy cull. The remaining herd will be the best of what I have. I just can't pass up an opportunity to double my money. A fella today warned me that I was going to get nailed in taxes. Probably will have to pay a lot but when you consider I have grown essentially tax free wealth over the past few years, I'd expect nothing less than to have to pay. There are a few things I could use that will dampen this but I won't be stupid about it. Maybe a new hay barn. And someone on the board once suggested I buy a new pair of boots. I'll probably do that. And some jeans. I need some jeans. And the rest, well they need those cell phones they truly do. :bang:
