I had the pleasure of spending a few days at an event called WE FEST this past weekend. I tell you what, take some country music, some beverages of your choice, and throw in 40,000 plus of us Red Necks at a camp ground near Detroit Lakes for three days and I guarantee you, a good time can be had.

I hope for all of the farmers that were not harvesting wheat yet, or having one last weekend of fun before turning your attention to the upcoming soybean and corn harvest, had fun. The songs with the words of combines, tractors, playing in the hay bales, and living on the farm , I am sure it took a lot of the “older” rednecks that are no longer working on the farms, back to the simpler times.

The music provided by, Kenney Chesney, Blake Shelton, Derks Bentley, Jason Aldean and a few other country stars, sure hit the right notes. Heck even Kid Rock was a hit with all the Farm Folks (well most of the farm folks)

Remember all you hard working farmers out there, a farmer needs to park the combine and tractor once in a while and enjoy life a little bit. Whether it a weekend like WE FEST, or a weekend with the wife and kids, time away from long hours of planting, haying or harvesting are needed.
