Herbert’s labor of love was farming – he plowed, planted, & harvested his fields, maintained equipment and fences, chased wayward cattle, and called them home every night. JOHN 10:3-4. When the hard work was done for the day, he was happiest eating a family meal, playing cards, or polka dancing the night away.
