game day

Going to the NU Baylor game today.  The day is dawning bright and clear after 3 solid days of rain.  34 deg. now but will warm to 60's.  Were walking to the stadium and will walk past a mobile bbq guy.  It will only be about 10:15 at that time.  What excuse will I have to drop 7$ on a pork sandwich??  I probably won't.  Maybe though.  Maybe kenneth will succumb,  I doubt it.  It is also opening day of pheasant season in NE.  That used to be one of the years  highlights in SD,  opening day.  Used to have some great hunts.  Talk to yall later.

dark and stormy night

It's been raining about 48 hours give or take a little.  Farmers are having a tizzy about getting nothing harvested.  Corn and beans are gaining moisture.  None of this is good.  However, there is some good news in the world.  Looks like I'll be a grandpa next spring as I'm sure you probably know.  I need to start checking out little guns and compound bows for the new addition to the family.  Guns are for girls too.  Just kidding...maybe.  Sold a good account today over the phone to a guy in SD.  Guess he wasn't as depressed as my farmers around here.  Let's see, what else, Darlene and I went to NU vs Texas A&M v-ball.  NU won fairly easily.  I caught the little volleyball that the coach threw into the crowd.  I even predicted that I would before the toss.  Hope the little old ladies that I knocked down to get to it are ok.  actually it came to me like it was on a mission, no fumbling, just a nice clean catch.  I offered to sell it to a lady behind me for 25$.  She refused.  That was a nice movie Greta, of your triple.  You guys, (t and g and a) had a good season.  Nice job of supporting them rest of family.  Nice photos and film Michael!! Looking forward to football game saturday.  Sounds like it will be sunny and around 60.  Excellent weather.

the day

I had an ok day, bet you were wondering.  Bookwork from 7-10:30 , went with associate to customer west of Elgin (may need to see a map), My associate wrote 109K worth of seed.  That's quite a bit if you are curious.  About 10 of those and he could quit for the year.....if we'd let him...which we won't.  We will continue to drive him onward so we can profit from his labors.  Darlene held down a table and small tv at a local sports bar so we could watch NU play and beat OU in v-ball.  It's back on the road in the morning to Creighton, Wausa and Hartington ,  may have to refer to a map again, or not if you really don't care which you probably don't.  Good job  softball team on destroying your opponent.  I didn't watch even one second of the debate last night.  I've heard it all by now.  Later.

Weekend fun

let's see...I've been away for a while, mostly soil sampling, selling and sitting in a meeting all day today.  Our sales force met in Blair NE.  Blair seed services actually, a sister company that processes our seed.  We had a few guys missing.  i guess the next meeting we'll have to make the threat of punishment more severe.  It was a good meeting.  Guys from Iowa, NE, MO.  We all ate mexican for lunch.  The restaurant not the person.  I am still stuffed from eating a stuffed poblano pepper with about 2# of cheese in and on it.  I think Darlene and I will go to sunken garden and walk around before supper.  Maybe take the Harley although I haven't asked he.  She is 18" away reading far side cartoons but not laughing...must be asleep or something.  

Big game tomorrow for NE.  MO will most likely slaughter us.  I'm glad I don't bleed red like I used to.  I guess I do bleed red come to think of it.  I must go now.
