well, i tell ya, dealing with hurricanes on the farm has a way of making you feel like you gotta decipher some cryptic message from nature herself. it's almost like she's testing if we know when to abandon the old ways and renew our methods based on a preexplicative understanding of her whims. it's a tough requirement, but it does bring a certain clarity and strength to how we manage our crops, making every season a bit more hopeful than the last.
