"I'm not a board kind of guy, and I wasn't looking for a job like that, but to be asked by Joe Harper and the people on the board to join on, I thought that's such an honor." All of which leads to another remark of Steinbeck's—"the quality of owning freez- es you forever into `I,' and cuts you off for- ever from the `we'"—that, while accurate to some degree, completely misses the mark when applied to the Hronis brothers.

"For us as a family to be involved with John Sadler, and any successes he has, that's an honor for us because we just think so much of him, what he's done for us as a family and for the barn," Kosta said. "Let's be honest about it, all the effort and all the hard work came from him and the fine peo- ple that are around him."
