Didn't make the local TV news that I know, but did make the daily newspaper. We drove past it, and wife remarked that Andersen Girls Orchard had a plane in their driveway. Thought it might be something they were doing for the publicity at the time... WRONG! This plane has been over our place for several days, over a week. We live about 12 miles (as the crow flies) right off the end of the runway of the Lakeview airport and often we're in the flight path between airport and the fields. Mercifully, this pilot flies a little higher when in transit, so we don't feel under attack. (Others may fly far lower!) Got one heckova engine in this one. He was working over a field several miles south of us the other evening, out of sight from here. I was wondering is someone was doing bombing runs with a WWII twin engine bomber - WHATTA RACKET.
Wife and I took a trip yesterday, 60 miles south - no farming going on except a couple farmers spreading barnyard fertilizer on the high ground. Now, my question what would they be applying this time of year? Only thing I can think of would be urea, and that doesn't make much sense to me.. (I'm thinking of trying to get on a field with a cultivator this afternoon- we'll have to see how it goes. - this is mid-Michigan!)

Today's Featured Article - Identifying Tractor Smells - by Curtis Von Fange. We are continuing our series on learning to talk the language of our tractor. Since we can’t actually talk to our tractors, though some of the older sect of farmers might disagree, we use our five physical senses to observe and construe what our iron age friends are trying to tell us. We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
