That's awesome. My dad is 91 and still farming. I hope I can still do what I love if I make it to that age.

Congrats,
My dad is 90, snared coyotes last winter, but I see he is starting to fade pretty fast. In the last few weeks he is using a walker more and more. We don't let him on the tractors any more as he gets off without putting them in park first. He only drives on the farm, we try (not always successfully I might add) to keep him from going to pick up roadkill deer.
