[QUOTE="Farmhand, post: 82555, member: 1292"] Have run into that problem myself but from a different angle. It's usually an old retired livestock man. He drives around looking at what everyone is doing and then stops in to "visit". I think he really misses having his own operation and being able to do the work. He stops with his "you aughta" as a reason to be there and open up a conversation. Usually humor him and make his day by asking his advice. Draw back is that it makes him feel more welcome to offer additional advice. Usually can end it by saying we'll keep that in mind when we have the money and time to do more. [/QUOTE]
