This picture reminds me of that
Congressman that
was on the News Hour
a few times in the late 1990s. His last name was Salmon. The first time
I
saw him he talked about how working on (whatever the issue was) gave
him
that "salmon day feeling". You know, the kind where you swim upstream
until
you are practically dead from exaustion and then you get screwed. He
retired
after three terms because he had promised to do so when he first got
elected. His
reasoning was that he couldn't expect other people to keep their word
if
he didn't.
This guy has been an organic
farmer for many
years. Right now he has
a smallish farm that he raises vegetables on for people that buy into
the
crop on a subscription basis. That kind of farming goes by the name CSA
nowadays.
