Chapter 16 Security, 2015

Some of our trails and fences need some maintenance, as they do every year. I've got a chainsaw, extra gas, bar oil, a come-along, some steel wedges, a shovel and an axe. And it is all loaded on the four-wheeler. I don’t have to carry anything! My mom and dad would be rolling over in their grave right now because we brought a four wheeler onto the farmstead.

My parents walked everywhere. Even after four knee replacements, my dad refused to get a four-wheeler. He was still downhill skiing after two knee replacements at the age of seventy-six. He and my mom would cross-country ski. They even tried snowshoeing, but never a snowmobile or four-wheeler to get around, too much noise, too much of a disturbance to nature.

And today we brought in one of those glorified golf carts with fat tires and a lot of room: and a motor. Again, my parents would be horrified! But, we got one hundred and twenty acres of mountain top forest and farm to maintain, with livestock and active farming going on. Rebecca and I are not retired yet; I probably never will retire. So the ability to get around this place fast, and with work gear, beat out Mom and Dad's dislike for four- wheelers. I am sure I will hear them screaming at me from heaven when I finally get a snowmobile!

On the other hand, the security cameras we put in place, Dad would like that. He was not a tech wiz, but being an engineer, he appreciated the value of modern technology. He had a remote sensor put in the driveway twenty years before anything like that even came close to being mainstream. If someone came down the driveway, the doorbell rang. No surprise visitors for Mom and Dad.
