We had a semi crop failure in Texarkansas because we ran out of Fertilizer money, but the Arkansas crop came in gang busters.

We are now taking out the Iowa crop and it's going 180-200 per acre! It's a bin buster!

It's also dried down to 20 percent moisture in a wet year. They are working like beavers as the weather is holding. You have to dry to 15-16. Sometimes the crop comes in at 23-26 moisture.

Busy Beavers. Luckily the crop is dry enough the dryer can keep up. Bumper crop. Whoo Hoo! Cheap Steaks for tailgaiting!

We had alot of tap dancing with Banks this last year. Next year should be better. I don't remember how much I talked about it, but it was real. Whew! We got a bumper crop except for one place we simply ran out of money.

Now we have 3 Bankers. Real Bankers. After my brother broke business ten years ago, he lost half a million in capital, then when he divorced, he lost another quarter million.

We took half the last farm equity to pray this would work out. Another quarter million. A few Banks held on.

God Bless he made it, and is getting married to a wonderful woman. She's a hottie schoolteacher.

He was just about suicidal 18 months ago. He has 6 kids. Matt Farms. Diana has a scholarship at Iowa as a medical student. Michelle is going to be a Dentist.

I'm so happy the crop came in and my brother will rebound. It took a family to do it. I'm just so proud. He has fought thru it, has a new wife and everything. How cool. It was close. So close that even I couldn't get any more money. It was all spent.

Now we have 3 banks in confidence. Whew!
