    I want to tell everyone to be extra careful around moldy corn. I did this same thing earlier this year and got a terrible case of Esinophilic Pneumonia.

    After working this spring at the Co-op in Alvinston Ontario Canada has given me even more hope that Im doing something positive for the world and not dwelling and killing myself in the meantime.
    Farming is its own therapy in a way, the stresses and anxiety is actually focused on an positive outcome.
    My goal is to take reins of our 100 acres in the next year or two so my step father can relax and enjoy himself. (But still pull wagons, reverse situations from 15 years ago.)

    The farm I work part time on is buying a used 24 row strip till tool from a farm roughly 8 miles from your farm. The conversation came up because your neighbor asked if my buddy had been on "Big Tractor Power and he said they had been on there several times and your neighbor farm said that the MF was about 8 miles away. My buddy did buy the strp till tool and now they got to figure out how to ship it to western Kentucky from what he told me, it is huge, very tall.

    On your ride home you mentioned seeing a missle silo. That is in fact part of our border radar system. Not a silo system but above ground radar. Watched the border for us. Am prior Air Force and have visited there before Zach. Neat system. Technology has passed it by now this day and age. Pretty old system.
    Love your new Deere sprayer. Really a super unit with all the accessories you and dad put on it. Really high tech unit. You are setting great with the new sprayer and trailer. Very nice Zach and Dad. Wow. Super system.
    Thanks for showing us what you did. Once you have time give us a rundown on the new trailer and sprayer. Would appreciate that.
    You went into the grain bin and walked around. Did not see any safety equipment. Do not quite understand. Why would you not have safety equipment on?????
    Just seemed not safe to me. I might not be understanding the situation.

    Always though the main point of recirc booms is that the chem is already out to the end of the boom when you want to start spraying.
    So you never have to do the thing that none of us ever did with a dead end system of backing the boom into the hedge and turning the spray on and waiting for the chem to reach the boom ends….

    Sounds like that sprayer is basically a really big repurposed electronic fuel injection system. Now, you said that the nozzles had lighting. If each nozzle had a light, and the lights could be strobed in sync with the nozzle pulses, it would freeze frame the spray pattern. That would be really cool at night.

Multiple Humvees with guns on the turrets and a helicopter escort going down the highway above them. When they were at the silos the Humvees would be backed in pointed outwards with men on the guns ready to light somebody up. I was told they were swapping out nukes for maintenance purposes.
