Popular Post riceyummm Posted October 31, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2013 Not a farm picture, a picture of a farm girl in a farm house with a pig's head. "How are you going to cook that?" "I don't know, this is my first one." It turned out very delicious, I never had a doubt. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancealot Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 What about those who process the Fish nearby but outside the Farm? Not a job I want to do!, Thanks for posting a clear example of the division between woman's and men's chores. For me it is very important those duty's are divided or shared. I have seen many exmples of this at my family's farm. For instance Farm dad will help out the girls(and I have seen him doing woman's work) when this is a high priority. I immensly respect this man. I also think daily duties, no matter how insignificant they might seem for personal developement, are the stronghold for staying happy together.

Chonburiram Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 (4)Last set of photos from my plowing lesson After chewing on with the tractor for a couple of rows I stopped for a ciggie break and to take in some much needed water. A couple more handy tips from Uncle a change of hat and I was ready to get back plowing. At the end of the day when the rice was planted and the field was plowed I was shattered,not only from the work I had done but also the heat and the burning sun being on me all day.It also taught me a lesson in humility,all my life I have grafted and have never been afraid to get my hands dirty........but that one days work at my Uncles place taught me an even more higher level of respect for Thai farmers and what they need to do just to make a living and in some cases just to survive. Full credit goes to the wonderful Mrs Shaggy for taking the photos of me with the tractor Looking at the very first picture of your "plowing lesson" I wanted to give you a big " RESPECT ! " just for the attempt of trying it! But see you doing it for the whole(!) day and in the end deliver a really good job makes me shake my head in disbelieve... be assured, your uncle is proud of you! I've seen quite a few men sitting in the dirt near their " Rot Tai's " cry and cursing their mothers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen quite a few men sitting in the dirt near their " Rot Tai's " cry and cursing their mothers. Thank you Chonburiram for your kind words,they are much appreciated. Although, I only managed a half day plowing because we were planting rice in the morning. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and look forward to doing it again.Hopefully the next time I do it my body won't feel so broken the next day. I did have the good fortune to see another expert in action later on that week,the young man was almost half my size and a good foot shorter,but somehow managed to throw his tractor around as if it were a rag doll and with pin point accuracy.....truly amazing to watch.
