Good fortune has not smiled on us. Lots and lots of bearings have failed. Opening disks, planter gauge wheel, covering wheels, tool bar gauge wheel bearings.

As of last night I think we lacked 421 acres. Jason was only able to run about an hour because smoke from the area grass fires was interfering with the guidance system.

This morning I got back on the tractor and the smoothness of the guidance I had come to love was gone! I don't know what went wrong, but a guy could get sea sick the way that thing yaws back and forth. I finally backed up a couple of gears to give the guidance time to think about what it was doing. It did some better, but still is not on its game.

You can bet if I was selling these things I would be wanting them to do the straight and narrow.

Last year I was impressed. This year if I was buying one I would probably try other brands.

I think we are at 200 acres remaining, and Jason is on the tractor as I type.

And Don is tired.

Rian and family are coming to see Memama tomorrow. That should be a busy day for everyone.

Have a day!

FATHER, help us to complete this task.
