Farm Help

I recently returned from the Morrow farm. I went to help Cliff with the harvest. Fortunately for Cliff, the weather didn’t cooperate so I couldn’t break anything and we had to go to plan B. Plan B consisted of good meals, good stories, a good visit, and attending a meeting with Cliff. I have to admit I have a new respect for what Cliff does in his elected position. He is quite good at it. Cliff is the ONLY politician I like this year.

Plan B also consisted of getting some help from Cliff and Marilyn. They took me shopping in Omaha. I was looking for a new smoker. My old one died after 30 years or so. They helped me select a new one that was just slightly out my price range (I always want to pay less). The John Deere green smoker made its way back to Colorado.

Since its arrival some okay salmon was smoked and an exceptional beef brisket. The salmon would have been great except the smoke master (me) left the temperature higher than it should have been while playing with the digital controls. The salmon dried out more than I care for but still had a great flavor.

Thanks to the Morrow’s for yet another great visit.
