Farmer H made a great personal sacrifice for the family on the day after Christmas. He CLOSED HIS SUS2.5 for the day! Let's remember that Farmer H has opened up his Storage Unit Store 2.5 on other holidays. He has even left after a holiday meal to go sell his wares. He made sure to point out that this would be the first time in the three years he has been open at this location that he has been CLOSED on a Friday!
I don't think it's such a big deal. You can sell junk any time, but you only get a limited number of Christmases with your son who shows up once a year from Pittsburgh.
Apparently, at least one person (besides Farmer H) thought it WAS a big deal.
As we were taking the exit ramp on our approach to the casino, A-Cad's radio rang. That's because Farmer H's phone is set to come through the radio. He recognized the caller's name, and pushed the button to answer.
"Just checking on you, buddy. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah. I'm fine. I'm with the family, and we're going to the casino today."
"Okay. That's good. I know you never miss a Friday, and I was worried when you wasn't here. Have a good visit with your family for the holidays."
"I will. Thanks for checking on me."
That was a nice thing to do. Some people are genuinely fond of Farmer H.
