Yes it is a big deal when you can send your son out to pull off a rock hung up on the sickle bar. He saw it at the end row. He likes riding in the combine because he can stand up move arounds some and not wear a seat belt. He likes to stand and watch for rocks or other hazards, he is gonna make a good operator.

New sports car....
What has four wheels, is red, is expensive, handles well(suspension package), and is fast(33mph!). Yup a new sports car! Here is ours. The chief is taking it though its paces in the photo. Owen was a bit frightened when we took off in it, he had never gone that fast in a tractor before.
2013 calf crop
17 of our calves weaned and growing. There is a furry number 18 in the back right from a friend that was a show calf with no home.

Harvest 2013
Worked some corn the last week of Sept in some light ground to scoop up some basis advantage. Corn was around 105bpa.... maybe... Went to beans last week they were a early planted 1.8 and went better than expected at over 50bpa. After a little rain this weekend we should be back at hard early next week and the rest of the beans should be ready to roll by the time we get to them.
Couch potatoes
The kids love the buddy seat in the White 6144. It folds out like a couch. It is so big you can even bring a friend.
