TAKE BACK From Dentures to YOUR SMILE Dental Implants

BEFORE If you’ve lived with dentures or missing teeth, you already know the daily frustrations. Slipping when you talk. Avoiding your favorite foods. Eating, laughing, and living life shouldn’t be this hard. At Michiana Dental Implants, we meet patients every day who feel the same way—tired of the hassle and ready for a real solution. That’s where full-arch dental implants come in. Unlike dentures, implants are secure, natural-looking, and designed to last. You can bite into an apple, savor a steak, and smile with confidence knowing your teeth are firmly in place. And the best part? You don’t have to face this journey alone. Our doctors are not only highly trained and Hybridge dental implant certified, but they also live right here in our community. They understand the challenges you’re facing and have helped thousands of neighbors just like you rediscover the joy of eating and smiling again. This October, there’s never been a better time to take that first step. We’re offering $500 Off Per Arch for anyone who begins treatment before the end of the month. Your new smile isn’t just about teeth—it’s about freedom, confidence, and living without limits. Don’t spend another day frustrated with dentures. Let us show you how simple and life-changing dental implants can be.

AFTER Melody was in a full set of dentures by the age of 30. After numerous embarrassing moments in public, she was able to transform her life with dental implants.

the epiphany

Baling Hay Keeps the Boredom Away

Well, I’m not bored now. Sweat rolls down my face. I wipe it hastily while I charge from the back of the moving hay wagon to the front. The goal is to yank the next bale onto the wagon before it tumbles off the chute and onto the ground because the baler is shoving the next bale through. Blisters are forming. Sister Emily is the teamster handling the four horses pulling the baler and attached wagon. Her natural horsemanship stands her in good stead (most of the time) as she guides the caravan in circles gobbling up the rows of hay.

My dad, he of the uncanny haying instincts, is not home today. The final decisions are up to me. Some of our 10 acres was cut yesterday, some two days ago. Will all of it be fit to bale today? Rain is forecast for tomorrow. ‘Twould be a comfort to have it all in the barn. I check both parts of the field. There is little doubt that the first will be ready. The second is iffy. I decide. We’ll rake the first part straight away and wait just a bit to rake the rest. Then we’ll try to bale it all. Sisters Emily and Ramah rake while I prep our baler. This is the first time it will be used this season, so I gas it up, check that it has twine and grease it. The girls bring their teams to the barn from across the road where they had been raking. We eat a quick lunch. Then it’s time to hit it. I used to dread haying time. Now it’s almost a rush, if things click. Emily and Ramah go back to the field to rake the second part, while Mom, Grace and I harness and hitch the big four-horse team to the baler. A few empty wagons bring up the rear as our procession crosses the road, makes its way back the driveway between the neighbors’ houses, and enters the field. Mom takes Emily’s spot on the rake and Emily grabs the lines at the head of the baling column. We came. We saw. We baled.

Any farm-raised boy can do this stacking, but it is still gratifying to see a well-balanced load rise on the wagon as I stack the bales like pieces in a puzzle. Emily’s job, steering the horses pulling the baler- while not so physically strenuous, still takes a level of skill, especially on the “inside-out” left turns we’re making on this first round. As we go past one corner, I see that Emily didn’t get it all. I think there’s probably enough left on the ground to feed Job’s camels for a day. I don’t say it out loud to Emily. Uh, uh. Not yet. Emily does guide the baler well, though, and gets most of the hay gobbled up. She really is a good horsewoman. This just makes it more fun when she messes up occasionally. We finish the outside round, switching wagons as they are filled, and point the baler toward the middle of the field. Emily raked this part earlier today and didn’t listen – or she misunderstood – or we had a miscommunication on how to rake it. Bottom line, a few of the rows in the middle are thicker than they should be. Now Emily has to hold the horses back to a slow walk and even stop them sometimes so the baler can keep up. There is nothing slow about the rear of the baler though. With all this hay going in its mouth, our trusty New Holland is kicking out bales at a rapid clip. Beachy scrambles to keep up on the wagon. At one point, the raked row is actually so wide the baler can’t reach all the hay. I jump down and quickly help Emily fix the problem. I do mention to my sister how unfortunate it is that she can’t blame someone else for the raking job. Promptly, I get back on the wagon. No point in giving Emily time to think of a retort. We do get finished though, and when darkness has fallen, the hay is all baled. Truly, it was hard work. Strange how good it feels.

Hay baling is a bit of an art. The hay must be dried so as not to rot after being compressed into bales. However, the savvy farmer doesn’t want his hay so dry that it loses nutritional value and palatability for his stock. The whole operation becomes a bit of a juggling act, including watching the weather forecast for an idea of when it will be sunny, cloudy or (look out) rainy. The farmer needs a feel for when the hay is ripe to cut as well as dry enough to bale. Experience helps.

We begin with one of the outside rounds. My job, on the wagon, is to monitor the quality and weight of the bales, make adjustments to the baler accordingly and stack the bales on the moving wagon.

Surprise, surprise: you’ll need to talk money. Even further, you’ll need to agree on money. In this private negotiation, both parties have the privilege to set their price, just as they share the challenge of doing so without scaring the other off. Ideally, a purchase price feels fair to both parties, but sometimes emotions or the fear of losing the deal can tip the scales, leading a Seller to discount the true value of their property or the Buyer to overpay for it. (There are exceptions where a price is intentionally favorable to one party who may be family or otherwise deserving.) A professional can bring local market knowledge to consult and negotiate on your behalf while keeping the high-stakes negotiation grounded in reality, not emotion. Local market knowledge isn’t just about knowing recent sales — it’s also understanding what gives a property its value, from neighborhood trends to unique features or current buyer demand. In a situation where you have doubts or feel like you’re negotiating blindly, it’s worth contacting a professional who can help you explore your options. After all, this transaction could be one of the few you’re a part of in your lifetime, whereas we handle them daily. If you needed a tooth pulled, would you try it yourself or call a dentist? If you feel confident negotiating on your own, remember that it’s not always just about the price. Agreeing on terms like repairs, moving the closing date, or even adding specific appliances or niceties can help balance out a purchase price that’s slightly off the mark. Small adjustments like these can make the deal feel fairer to both sides without a large price shift.

Once all agreements are made, one party — typically the Seller — reaches out to our office or one of our agents to make the transaction a reality. First, we have each party sign a purchase agreement and the buyer submits any earnest money that serves as a deposit towards their purchase. Then, our team communicates with the title company and any banks, lenders, or surveyors involved while monitoring the transaction and tackling any obstacles all the way to closing day. By letting us handle the details, you can focus on the excitement of what’s next.

MICHIANASHOWCASEMAGAZINE.COM

Every so often, a buyer shows up at your door before your home is even for sale, or the local grapevine finds the right buyer for that plot of land you own, or maybe someone saw the “For Sale by Owner” sign you had out front. Whatever the case, here at RES, there’s a type of deal we call a “transaction only”. This less-common option is for folks who privately agree on a purchase price and then ask us to carry out the paperwork. But how does this transaction come together?
