I’ve always been a “good enough” person, as in “yeah that’s good enough to last a while”.  Everything on the farm was built to be serviceable for a short time, in part because that was my inclination, but also because as we grew and changed in our operations, our needs for infrastructure changed so much that most things would end up having to be redone anyway.
