I have a close friend that will be 82 in September He farms about 400 acres of citrus with the help of a couple of hired hands. Does all his own maintenance on his equipment and still finds time to restore a antique truck or tractor every few years. He called me the other day and told he had decided to sell all the groves but about 50 acres just didn't feel like doing it anymore said it was time to slow down and maybe take it easy. Has 1920's Mack truck he has been working on for a number of years wants to get done before he's gone. He can still work me in the ground on just about any given day.

He always laughs and says go ahead he figures he isn't going to need it where he's going just make sure the auctioneer doesn't charge more than 10%
