That's awesome that your dad is still so active. As mentioned, it is likely the best thing for him physically, and I'm sure it is mentally and emotionally. There is a fellow in his 90's near my daughters' daycare provider who still farms his 80 acres. About 12 Hereford cows, and a farmyard and fields as neat as can be. Equipment perfectly maintained. I know one of his sons has offered to help with haying etc, but dad's reply is "your still a little young for operating equipment". Son is in his 40's! He just says "ok dad, but let me know when you need a hand". I do see his car at the farm a couple of afternoons each week, and about a month ago they were doing some motor work on the 6000 Ford and the Fordson Super Major got a new coat of paint by the father/son team. Cherish the moments, they'll be memories before you know it.
