A Whole New World

Here's the sitch...
I'm at a different dairy using their ANCIENT scale to weigh the trucks. They come in get weighed and then go to the small farm two miles or so down the road. I have literally stepped back in time fifty years. No cool computer print button scale. No air conditioning.  No shack with a desk to do my computer entries. Just a hut with a huge balance and a single hanging light. It was like I was in a nice room at the Hampton but then had to go to a Motel 8.
The guys at the big farm would talk to me and of course there were my tractor guys in the pits. Here there's no one. I am the new female, which I guess means stay away. Different. Actually, there is one guy who has talked with me. He told me that the hut and scale were installed in the 60's. See, you thought I was kidding about fifty years back in time. He also gave me his number to tell him if anyone messes with me. So that's comforting?
There are lots of cats. Most of the run away when you approach them. I saw one cat limp by me with a very broken front left leg. It was sad. I should've been a vet. The cows are close at this little place. Every now and then there's a breeze which is divine. I'm not athuorized to drive any machines here (which honestly I haven't seen anything cool here... remember time warp). Depending on the bug factor this evening I might be reconsidering my wardrobe. Jeans and rubber boots are heat holders. Though it might further isolate myself from the population here. I'll have to make a pro/con list.

 Just waiting for the sir to show me where the new place is this morning. Had my banana in my chair in Old Norman's bed. Pretty sweet set up.

 This is The Hut. Less regal than The Shack and hardly casts any shadow.

Before computers did the tallying of the weight the balance did the job. In the heatbox that is The Hut it definitely will try your patience making that thing even.

 This is the kitten that I'm trying to befriend. He/she is cute.

My view from the shade of the hanger.

Overall,  not quite a third world country but I still miss the big farm. Three more days. <hopefully>
