Don't think I've ever seen an "all-clear"flag, and I'm not talking lack of color.
They're remodeling the other side of the office. The construction workers are listening to Lionel Richie
Well added another grand nephew to the collection today. Mom and baby are both doing well.
My sumac is starting to turn now. It's kind of a dull rusty red that should convert to a bright red if there's enough sugar stored in it. The hackberry behind it is already going over to gold. When they both turn, I have my own little Cyclone Corner.

Took my sons on their first harvest tractor ride the other night. The oldest (20 mo.) is obsessed with tractors and was having an absolute BLAST - right up until dad wanted to take a picture of him sitting with my cousin to capture the moment...
Going to be fun to break out this photo again for his high-school graduation

Little boy me was scared of tractors. That was back in the day of old Johnny Poppers and big flopping belts running off of flywheels to power other equipment.
I was having similar flashbacks to riding with my dad in a noisy, dust filled, rough riding New Holland harvester... kids these days, I tell ya!
I learned to drive a tractor on an old Farmall Cub. Even on that tiny tractor I had to stand up to reach the pedals. Thank God for the hand throttle...I was having similar flashbacks to riding with my dad in a noisy, dust filled, rough riding New Holland harvester... kids these days, I tell ya!

Cab! You lucky son of a gun, Super m is the 1st thing I remember driving very far, MF 65 was what I hauled silage in with. Cabless 1130 for field work, heat houser on it for plowing in the fall. But I got to do all that and am really glad I did.
I have to sit in on a worthless meeting twice a week where they discuss potential new customers. I have to listen to bring up any concerns I might have over their current automation environment. Today I have one (another one sunsetting the mainframe) that they have been trying to get for 3 years. I look at their document and the automation is a ?. How have you been trying to get this for 3 years and don't know what they are using for their automation tool?
There's a bar we go to occasionally that has a pull tab shake, where you buy a pull tab, it goes in the box, then you have 3 shakes for 5 of a kind to win the box, bartender does first roll. It was just me and my coworker last night, I buy 2 pull tabs because he usually doesn't do any of the shakes. So I go first, nothing. Then I give him the other pull tab, bartender rolls 5 ones, and he wins.
The box had to contain over 500 pull tabs. Took us 45 minutes to open them with the 2 of us and bartenders helping us. We ended up with $487 which we split between the two of us. Not one $250 or $500 winners though.

We’re in DSM airport and I’m seeing people in Hawkeye clothing everywhere. Even shared a shuttle with family of four all decked out. Looked up schedule - they’re at home today for 11 am game. Lordy. What is up with these people?
We are wearing ISU shirts so counteracting it somewhat.
