Where Have All The Lean Dreamers Gone?

Thomas Riner, of Fancy Hill Farms, sent us this article entitled Where Have All The Lean Dreamers Gone?. Love the way he thinks!!!

You go to the airport, but there are no large planes just small one seater or family size planes that fly at rapid speeds and can take you anywhere in the world….” To read the entire article, press here.
