That is very picturesque and artistic and all that stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if Susan could get a couple hundred grand for that in the right place, so that you could keep farming for another ten years or so.

That's a fantastic picture DeltaRed.
I had a spare minute so I played around with it and made it look painted and B&W.
Enjoy.

Great photo! Yes, It could just as well have been taken in the 40s or 50s. Save that one for the calendar that all you folks are gonna make one of these years.

Can you think how the guy made the next pass? Using a disk or whatever to level that down had to be a chore.

Looks like a Norman Rockwell or an Arnie Freytag. Something you would see hanging on the wall at a John Deere dealer. Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks.

I like Ollie Poor's posting. Can't afford a calendar but I am going to print out all the nice photos I can get for a day or week hanging. My e-mail is open and will send anyone some of mine from the past.
