    Chet, you have to laugh at the bad stuff. My uncle built a sawmill in the Pacific Northwest. One night the mill caught fire. My dad said he stood back and watch it burn for a minute or two and reared back and laughed. He said, "she sure makes a good fire!". When you can't change it laugh. It's good for the soul.

Your people are the most valuable and important assets you have. I'm sure he feels plenty bad, and knows how much of problem it creates this very important time of year. Just imagine if it were you driving, and whatever blew up. How upset you would be with yourself.

    As far as loading seed from pro-boxes and safety concerns, you could always purchase an electric ground unit transfer auger that eliminates climbing. It is mobile and safe. Set the pro-box in the cradle, turn it on and open the gate.

    Need one of those 6" dia. self propeller augers with large pan feed for your seed tender operation at the seed shed. Use Hyster to hold seed bins over pan feed, drop the seed in. So much safer, all alone operation.
    Think about moving in with your dad and mom until that wonderful wife of yours heals. You need the company and someone close to talk with. We all care about you Chet.

    Thanks for another interesting video. Really busy time of the year for all of you. Feel bad that the truck called black jack has some serious mechanical problems. Hard to lose a truck when so busy. Will be interesting to know how bad the engine is. Hard to get the acres planted when Chet gets to the field late. But understand he is needed for other things also like black jack breaking down. Oh my. Doug has been able to keep the corn acres going in the ground which is good. Chet is working hard on the soybean and with some late nights can catch up knowing him. Hang in there Chet. I agree with Chet that putting seed in the seed tinder needs some safety updates. Really have to watch your footing the way it is now. Am sure when time permits you all will look at that. Chet, like the sandwiches you make, they very good. Appreciate your time in getting this video done. Had lots of changes to deal with. Thanks to Nicole for editing. Lots to do there I am sure. Nicole, we think of you always and trust you are doing better and feeling good. Thanks for all you do. My respect to the entire Larson team for keeping up with a very busy planting season. Hang in there. Thanks. Iowa farm boy from years ago.
