Here is one that is sitting by the water tower in Nickerson KS. It is owned by the city and has been pulled in parades. |
John,
I do not think it is the "crazy" mode that we are in...it is mostly watching out for your hired help concerning their saftey, trying to keep things in good shape for fear of fires, and trying to stay ahead of the potential bad weather that may ruin ones crop if one is just poking along.
Well yes, I guess we are a little crazy but all we are doing is trying to feed America.
