Country Hospitality: Example A

One example of "country hospitality" is waving at a tractor as you pass it respectfully.  Dear Farmer takes it a step further...whether he's driving a tractor or a truck...he honks and waves to a fellow(s) in the yard. When Dear Farmer and Wife were first married he'd do this as they passed every person while driving down the road. Wife asked Dear Farmer, "Do you know them?" Some he did.  More he didn't.  "Why'd you wave if you don't know them?", Wife asked.  "Well", Dear Farmer replied,"just think about all the fun they'll have trying to figure out who that was waving at them!  I've probably given them enough to talk about for a whole day." This is part of country hospitality: you offering others part of you.  Your humor, your talents, your time.
