I live in the city and pretty much like it here.  The farm life looks good and I like reading about it and looking at pictures and thinking about the dollars and cents of ranching and farming which is probably not too good in most cases and always a lot of hard work.  A lot of hard physical labor.  I prefer to sit at my desk in my...
