Move what?
Now that that's out of the way, It used to be, but the last few times I put them in a shed I built on my father's farm. Since I bought my house, they can stay here while I'm gone because I'll be keeping it.
I forgot 'it' is a bad word.  |

What a big job is has been for me over the years to move half my library across Canada and around the Province of BC.
I didn't realize you had a house to keep your things in that will help immensely with your moving around better for the books. what kind of books do you collect anything in particular? *sigh* your father has a farm! what kind of farm?

farm was mixed while I was growing up, grain, cattle, etc. But now he just grows alfalfa on it. No maintenance which gives him time to run his vacation business.

business is my sisters expertise!
chat:
Archangel I didn't realize you grew up on a farm that was always a dream of mine we came very close because my father wanted to buy one when I was ten but they settled on an acre by the Richelieu river in the country instead. The only farm was the one accross the street where I learned to milk cows...I came to love the smell of manure too!

expertise in any field is a nice thing to have
chat: I too have pulled my fair share of cow... Well, you get the idea. When I'm at retirement age, I wouldn't mind doing it again.

Animals are great, even the ones that I'm barbaric enough to eat.
Only two or three which might take forty-five minutes or so. Then go back to sleep.

Eat dead meat I no longer do but I'm not militant about that, I cook meat for my friends.
chat:
2 or 3 cows that would only be for personal use then...what in the world would you do with all that milk? That is a lot of milk! LOL! You’d go back to sleep after the milking? Now I hadn't thought of that!
