Harvest Central




There is so little storage available for corn that grain elevators are starting to pile it up outside. I'll post a picture of that next time.
Farmer attire has changed from the days of yore (or at least of Tom's dad). As you can see, Tom sports collared shirts, shorts, and Red Wing boots. A thoroughly modern farmer.
If you were in the cab with him you'd probably bask in the coolness of the airconditioning while listening to a Cubs or Bears game on the radio. Newly installed in the combine is a GPS unit to track every bushel of corn or soybeans.
Lastly is the annual Threshermen's Bluegrass Festival. Autumn ain't complete without a little shit-kickin' music to stir your soul.
