I hope you take lots of pictures and video for those of us will be attending via the computer. Try to have enough fun for all of us.

If I ever figure out Yew toob thing...:rolleyes2:
 
It's a concept, but $250 for gas for the trip would be a kick in the wallet I don't need. If I don't make it down, it'll get loaded multiple times, I'm still taking tomorrow off work, might as well cut wood.



I'm leaving it to my buddy with the shop and the tools, along with the experience. He's gotta work till noon at his real job, if it's up and running it will be a later trip than I planned on.

Time for a nap, 48 hours of work since 3pm Monday has me holding the eyelids open with toothpicks.

Fire up the grill tallguy and I are getting some steaks for super in Norwalk right now!

Back from the garage, 5 bills and change later. We changed bearings (by we, I mean my buddy did while I stood around acting helpful :D ) in all 4 corners, since there's 230,000 on the old girl. Did a couple other minor details while it was up on the rack as well. After writing that check (still less than a car payment though), I've decided to stay out on this one. I'll be back next spring for sure. For now, time to throw the saws in the truck and get ready for some firewooding tomorrow. I'm hoping for plenty of pics here when I get in tomorrow night.

Some guys are getting near the end of corn. We are basically done. A lot of guys started beans this week. Chopped silage two weeks ago and there is still corn in the area that is plenty wet that could be chopped.

It has been a year of firsts though. Last weekend was the first time I can ever remember picking ear corn in September and needing to run the air conditioner while doing it.

Beans are all but gone here, corn is probably 1/3 done, with very little if any drying going on. My farm got picked Wed, averaged 135 bu, pretty normal for my ground, would have been better if the rain didn't shut off about the time Hedgerow came up here. :msp_confused:

Thanks Scott, but I think I'm gonna sit this one out.
 
Please save a little wood for the saws tomorrow.

I have my Ranger loaded up:

SP125
77
SP118 (SD166)
SP105
PM1000 (P100)
1-85
PM800 X 2
Titan 57
3-10E
2050
BP-1
4 little JD/Remingtons for Bill to take back to SE Iowa.
Stop watch, tach, digital scale, compression gauge, spare schrader valves, tool box, cooler with soft drinks, spare parts for Struggle, a few odds and ends for folks to sort through in case you need something, could be more that I've forgotten already.

Hopefully I will remember to put the smoked pork in the truck in the morning before I take off...
