Boat floated - What floats your boat in Farming? Where do you get your kicks? What gets you excited?

For what it's worth, I'll let you know what I love most in our business. We have been doing this for over 10 years now, and over that time, we have attracted over 68,000 members and ten of thousands in sales.

One thing I don't get sick of is when a member signs up, a listing is loaded, an inquiry is made, and a sale is confirmed. On any particular day, we get alerted of any of these actions, and each time an alert comes through, I get a little excited. It never ever gets boring, and we don't take each one of these actions for granted. We call it one member at a time, one listing at a time and one sale at a time. 

We all have our favourite things we like doing on the Farm. I heard one guy on a podcast say he likes nothing better than walking behind a mob of Sheep moving them from point A to point B. Another Farmer told me he checks all of his Crops every day and never misses. A Farmer in SA said he is most excited when he's classing the Wool he grew. A Farmer in the Mallee said he is most excited when the smell of moist tilled soil hits the nostrils. What excites you?
