Hi Dave, We have had a wonderful winter season here, don't remember wearing anything heavier than a sweatshirt. The seasons are much different than Michigan as they mow alfalfa every thirty days and grow all kinds of vegetables all year around. We live about half way up the White Tank Mountains about twenty five miles west of Phoenix. This area was once owned by Caterpillar and was used for their proving grounds. The first city east of us is Goodyear and was owned by the tire manufacturer for many years and they grew thousands of acres of a special variety of cotton for their bias ply tires. Still quite a bit of cotton grown in the area. Last spring I rode several rounds with a custom harvester cutting irrigated wheat and they were using Shelborn headers on the combines. The field they were working in was yeilding 150 BPA and they were saying that it was mediocre. The valleys are all irrigated farmland except where they have built up subdivisions. Also several extremely large dairy operations. I don't know just how many cows they milk but I have seen a semi back in and load three times a day. We have gone to many spring training ball games this year as a young kid by the name of Joc Peterson lives across the street from us plays left field for the L A Dodgers. What you were thinking of was the corn head that goes on that combine. I will send a picture or two if I can find them. Tom
