[QUOTE="CharcoalWally, post: 5227126, member: 3171"] The feelgood vibe continued on the way home on Saturday afternoon /evening. Leaving Stirling and heading out on the Carse road to see field after field of beautiful green hay lying cut in the sun. Saw one baler out at work baling up. Driving on towards the Argyll hills rising up in front of me bathed in evening sunlight , I reflected on what an incredible industry this is. Last year I posted about how another 2017 would drive cows off the West, and this year we're lookin for rain if anything. It's an incredible rollercoaster the farming life, and yet year in year out, a group of us still meet up in an enormous field outside Edinburgh to look at livestock, machinery, blether , eat burgers and icecreams, have a few drinks and party on into (hopefully ) sunlit Summer evenings to our hearts content. Looking around at the familiar faces I'm with, it makes me feel part of something huge. That we're still all there together through the years, through the ups and downs, good times and bad , friends brought together in a simple spirit of friendship, togetherness and good times shared between us. The industry may be ever plagued with problems, but as long as we're all here to live life and celebrate together , then it's not too bad in my book. The Highland. It's more than just a show.
