Hello everyone, I know this topic isn't tractor related. Please forgive me. I just wanted to give everyone an update on my esophogeal cancer journey. I am currently undergoing radiation and chemo treatments at Mayo in Rochester Minnesota. I just started the first of 25 radiation treatments on Monday this week and my first of 5 chemo treatments was yesterday. I am severely struggling swallowing solid food since I was diagnosed on June 7,2023. After I complete these treatments, and if all goes well, I will have about a 4 week recovery, and then hopefully I will have the esophojectomy surgery in mid October. The esophojectomy is a very intense 6-8 hour surgery where 3 doctors remove my cancerous esophagus and the top of my stomach, and then reform the rest of my stomach into a tube and reconnect it to the back of my throat. I will have a feeding tube in my belly until I can learn to eat again on my own. This could be a 6 month or longer recovery, depending on how my body is handling all these changes. So my life will be forever changed from here on. I am leaving this all in our good Lord's hands to guide me through this journey succesfully. Thank you all for listening. Wishing you all the good Lord's blessings on your day. Attached is a picture of me in a t shirt my wonderful wife designed for my cancer journey. We are also selling these t shirts as a private fund raiser for me. Kow Farmer Kurt

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
