A year ago I posted about the "Last Farewell to the Last Harvest" and first of all I want to thank each and everyone who responded with their best wishes and congratulated me on retiring. I printed off all the responses and they went directly to my little museum in my office that I have saved things that are very special to me. I promised to post some of the "Bucket List" happenings and I have given it a lot of thought lately. I turned seventy five, had a significant wedding anniversary and retired all in one year so I decided to plan a nice European Vacation for my wife and myself. We have just returned from being in six different countrys and have been gone for over a month. I know that we both have been extremely Blessed to be able to do this in several ways. We have the health as there is a lot of walking involved on some very uneven terrain and we are both fairly comfortable traveling most anywhere in Europe. Our trip started out in Germany as we took a nonstop from Detroit to Frankfort and rented a car and headed south to Mannheim, the home of John Deere's European opperations and then on to Heidleberg Germany. I will post some pictures so you can get an idea of where we are at and why. We have a daughter that graduated from Heidleberg in Tiffin, Ohio. This is an offshoot of Heidleberg University in Germany where we learned that they had a medical school in the 1300s. Think about a school that dates back seven hundred years. Number one picture Overveiw of the city of Heidleberg. The Neckar River flows through the city and joins with the Rine in Mannheim.
Number two You can still see some of the war damage remains
Number three Typical street scene.
Number four Every town has a beautiful Church or Cathedral I will post in a few days the next stop on the trip. " The Swiss Alps "

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
