OK...let's not be so quick to discount the CPA there buddy. I am a CPA for (bleep) sake! And I'll stand toe to toe with anyone when it comes to my abilities on the farm. Especially with all my mentors on the various forums here helping me out in the areas where I am weak. God bless the lot of em. Seems to me you fall in that group, come to think of it.
It is TRULY sad about your landowner. He clearly loved his place. Heartbreaking to find out you cannot/will not go back. His one mistake was not to find a way to instill that same love in his children. I think those of us who are custodians of our land have a duty to do that...or try at least. I have two kids, both girls but that hardly matters. I will never forget the first time my brother brought his wife to the farm. She looked out over the place and proclaimed that "this would make a great housing project!" I didn't miss a breath when I informed her..."Not in my lifetime." What really caught me was my older daughter muttering behind me quietly..."not in my lifetime either." I was the only one to hear it. What a blessing to know two things I love in life will go on together!
I hope you find that one or more of those kids is not so worthless after all and that the place continues on. By the way, I don't assist my tenant unless he asks me. I do my part and he does his. Sometimes we stand under a tree and pass a word or two.
