Bill,

I finished corn up a week ago, and the beans yesterday. It's years like this that having sandy soil pays off, plus we missed some of the heavier rains. It's been a hectic month. I did buy a 30 foot conventional drill this spring, that made a big difference over the 13 feet I was using. Started with the 2255 FWA pulling it, but the transfer case got hot for some reason that I still haven't figured out, so I put the drill on my 1955 FWA, and it pulled it just fine. Now I need a 12 row planter...

Duane Starr has told me he has had trouble logging in to the forums. I've tried to get him to let me know what was going wrong so I could fix it, but he never elaborates, and I can't find anything wrong with his account. I have to contact him and remind him that we need his President's column, so I'll mention the post to him at that time. He should be able to see it, as anybody can read that area of the forums, but he would have to log in to post.

The Past President does get to vote at board meetings, so Andy isn't totally out of the picture. But he's not in charge either. Duane has been doing an excellent job of running meetings and using email to keep the board up to date on issues as they arise.
