Enlistment

On a farm or ranch, there's always more work to do than hands to do it. Any friend or family member who comes to visit dreads the inevitable: While you're here, would you mind giving me a hand with ______? I was going to do it yesterday, but the cows (got out/busted  the fence/needed doctoring/all of the above).

On our place, even the cottontails have a job: keeping the cowdog in top aerobic condition!
