 Since it is harder and harder to find a hay crew What do you think of my the idea having people pay me to get healthy?--------------- NEW FITNESS PROGRAM Corbett Farms fitness program. Get out of the gym and come get a real workout walking 2-3 miles along side the fitness wagon driven by a 77 yr old great grandmother. See if you can keep up with her. You'll be lifting 55-60 lbs organic weights (hay bales) onto the fitness wagon. See if you can throw a 60lb organic weight 8 feet high. After fitness wagon is loaded, remove the organic weights into a nice stack. The fitness area is outdoors and you're guaranteed to work out every muscle in your body. No need for sauna after. You will sweat out lots of water during the workout. After fitness program is over you can have an optional run through a 1/4 mile of sprinklers. Just $50 What else should I include? |

Sounds good, you sure are right about finding a hay crew. Younger generation just don't want to work. They want to be entertained and pampered . ------------- Thanks & God Bless Dennis |

| Your right about the marketing,. My boy is my salesman he brings a few friends over to shoot clay birds and cooks some Limousin meat while playing some colt Ford on the old camp speakers I bought at a auction and then his friends talk about it at school and he tells me the kids are asking to come put hay in. I believe there is some good able bodied willing to work kids or as you said generation. There is hope. |
