3 to state in singles tennis. got another son that will be competitive in any sport. They are capable of so much on the farm too. My greatest memories was working as a kid with my dad. I feel like I am letting those opportunities slip away for...."Ball".

The most therapeutic drive in the state of Kansas. Kansas highway #4. I particularly enjoy the stretch from Lacrosse to Healy.

It's paid for so who cares .....
My guess is you could get by just fine with 1 less tractor. 🚜 Convenience tractors have become too common and come at a steep price.

Just a reminder to those waiting to buy their planter parts. We run the best pricing all year long on parts. If there is a program or extra discount, yeah we will advertise it and pass it along. There is not an extra 10% to take off for one week of the year. We don't mark everything up an extra for the year to offer and off set an extra 10% off a couple weeks a year. That is not how New Ag Supply works or will work. No gimmicks.

First Kansas morning below 20° and Snapchat is full of "Cold starts" I am always amazed by this phenomenon of fascination of the middle aged farmer.

Wish Dad was here for this one. He would have really enjoyed cutting this once in a lifetime Milo crop.

I took off yesterday and today.Watched my daughter win her ticket to state Tennis. She's not "naturally athletic" but she works hard and constantly improves. She set a goal to get to state just once in her highschool career. She accomplished that today. So glad I got to see it.

The corpse show be well tenderized now
The guys who argue test weight doesn’t matter, what are your thoughts on a 1400 grain cart holding anywhere from 77k in some hybrids to 84k in others….
