Yesterday, once again I got to help my Amish buddies thrash their speltz. This is a fun day for me every year. I am so glad to be included. This year, our grandson is visiting from Montana, he got to go too. I am sure there will be lots of stories told in a Montana high school this fall, because my grandson was wide eyed most of the day.
He got to see what real work is. He got to feel chaff and dirt down his back, as it mixed with sweat. He got to experience just how, "many hands makes light work", feels.
He got to relish just how good a glass of cold water can refresh a man. He got to enjoy a large home cooked Amish meal and be surrounded by good wholesome fun.
I get to experience these things often and I am glad to have been able to pass this experience down. It was a wonderful day.
