One spring break when I was a senior in college,some friends and I drove to the West Coast. Along the way we stopped and spent two days on a farm in Idaho. There had once been dairy farmers,but at the time of our visit they were retired and the cows had been sold. Still,the place was a real farm,and we got to work a little,walk a lot,and eat great food. We brushed two huge horses,helped fix some fences and generally had a good time. The snow?capped mountains in the distance and the wild flowers in the yard made the place nice. I liked the life there.
Though I did not grow up to be a farmer,I still manage to spend as much time on other people's farms as I can. For me,it beats a holiday inn. Next to the scenery and the food,the work itself is always the best part. It makes me feel good.
If you haven't planned your summer vacation yet,maybe it would be a good idea to spend some time on a farm. Many farmers open their doors to travellers,who can expect all different kinds of accommodations (食宿) and experiences. If you are looking for something to give you the flavour of farm life but feel mostly like taking a vacation,you could spend a weekend at a farm offering "farm vacations".
One day back at that farm in Idaho,my friends and I planted trees in the yard. Being in such a nice place inspired us to make up a little song to sing to each tree as we put it in its hole. Fifteen years later that funny song still comes to me when I am working in my garden. Farm vacations can make a deep im?pression.
