Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

That should be good for a couple of weeks. I am also figuring out how to lime my fields. I need about 40 ton of lime. I am planning on mounting the spreader to the rear of the tractor so I can apply lime while I am mowing. We had another chicken croak. She was sick and one of her sisters poked her real good when I was in with them. She dropped in about five minutes after that, Dead Chicken. Douglas has an ant farm working in the kitchen. That is a lot of fun. I am going to have to post a little movie of the ants in their mindless drive to make tunnels. No plan, no real reason, just instinct. Click ...
