It has been a tough year for alot of us, I quess. And if I had a nickel for every hydraulic hose I had to replace this year along with the money I spent for every gallon of hytran I bought, I would be in Florida right now. And then I think of a neighbor. This guy had farmed a long time. Worked real hard and finally felt that he could afford to get himself a new pickup truck. And he got a dandy. 3/4 ton, four wheel drive, extended cab, the works. First new pickup he ever had. At corn planting time he had some trouble with his planter and had his truck out in the field with his tools in the back. When he got the planter fixed, he got in the tractor to check it out. Hit that hydraulic lever and dropped the marker right thru the windshield of his brand new truck. He went directly into Extreme P.Oed mode and raised the marker up and out of the truck. Got out of the tractor to move the truck. Got all the glass out of the way and noticed the steering column had been adversely affected by the marker hit. Got the truck started but couldn't get it in gear. Really mad at this point he yanked the shifter into what he thought was R and hit the gas. The truck lurched forward, of course and right into the side of the planter (7000 JD 12RN) and took out 2 row units. This is the same guy who tried to pull a stuck 7700 combine out of the mud by putting a chain around the back axle and pulled the combine in two. So when you feel like you have had about enough of this farming just think about this guy. And he is still farming!

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
