I started out as a wheat/corn farmer right smack on the Colorado/Nebraska state line in the mid 1970's with a big dream to be like my grandad. Then the hail came in '76 and the blizzard of '77, my wife left, and my world changed. I had to rearrange everything so I went to college. Nine years later I left the University of Tennesse as a dentist. I have what would be considered a "hobby" farm now where I restore antique farm equipment in North Carolina.

I even tried to buy a quarter section of my grandfather's wheat ground in eastern Colorado last year, but they tell me the wheat is dying due to lack of moisure and I would have been in trouble with the bank due to no crop the first year. It sold for a record price for that county anyway so it would have been difficult to make it cashflow. I would say get an education first. Be sure you keep your gpa up to keep your options open as vet school admission is competitive. But, when I retire, I'm going back to the farm.....
