Ive about had it with Photobucket for many reasons so I am going to try out a new website for a while, I would appreciate any feedback you have.
Seedwheat cleaning. Took about 3 1/2 hrs to clean 1200 bushels not including setup and cleanup time.

Made some trips to the local dealers before harvest started. New 9120 with 16 row corn head is in town for a while it seems. Dealer brought it in just to demo! No pictures of the 9120 yet but I did get one of the head.
Sounds like dad thinks we are going to upgrade combines pretty soon, a 6088 with 95 sep. hours is sitting on the lot just waiting for us :/ Also with the bumper crops and chance of a larger combine, we are in need of more transportation. Sounds like either another semi and hopper bottom or.... gravity wagons. That would be the first I have seen them around here but hey, if it helps....

We finally finished fertilizing and spraying for the year, we still need to go over all of the summerfallow once before drilling but at least we are caught up. Dad says that the AGCO dealer is trying to talk him into upgrading into a B series, I doubt it will happen until we get more acres.
I almost didnt get any action pictures of fertilizing but on the last field, I caught up with him while I was spraying summerfallow next to it.

All sorts of things going on around the county. Midwest Energy (our electrical provider) has almost finished installing all new power poles in this county and most of the surrounding counties. They are a few miles from our house and should show up this winter or the coming spring.
The local CPS is putting up a new building this winter/spring for more storage space. In the spring, they currently have to take what little shop space they have and use it to store seed. I also grabbed a picture of one of their 4 sprayer trucks.
They borrowed our 7130 for a week to work on a fertilizer injector.

Thats all for now, more to come as harvest really starts along with wheat drilling.
