Yesterday Phil got the county extension corn plot planted. He had a good group of helpers. We are down on seed varieties so it didn’t take them too long.
I’ll just post these pictures quickly before I head off to my list of jobs.
Phil puts a strip of wheat for the end rows so they have a place to work. This is cleaning out the last 2 varieties and they will refill with 2 new varieties. Each pass has 2 sets (6 rows each) of corn varieties. Mark keeps all the records and flags each one in the field as well.
There is a smaller crew at the other end (2 seed dealers today) that do the same jobs when Phil gets down there.
JP was glad Rich (friend from church) was there! With Rich moving the vac, JP could clean out the planter 75% faster. 🙂
He (Phil) stood still! 🙂
My man
(Pay no attention to the background details….)
Yes, they got treats! Cinnamon rolls and something to drink. I had a huge pan for one side and another pan and cooler for the other end. (I’m trying to save you one Grandpa! 😉 )
If today goes well, Phil should have all our corn planted. Rain is due tonight.
and sew on... 
Oh yum! Cinnamon rolls! Love the farm pictures. My son would be in heaven there! He loves John Deere’s – we even took a vacation to Moline just for him!

No, Nina didn’t ride in your car at all. It is a bit crowded for her. 😉
Beautiful sky in these pictures!
