Been dry in my part of southern Wisconsin............haven't had a good rain since about the 10th of June. 3rd crop hay coming on, neighbor wants to chop and bag. Hotter than billy pergatory here........of course it is, it is fair week this week. LOL We'll see what happens........

Little town of about 250 people had their big fireworks fest last night. The guy DS#1 works for does the show. The Spousal Unit (hereafter referred to as the SU, for those of you that don't know me. LOL) and I are getting into it too; went and helped set up yesterday. I learned how to wire shells and stuff. Got some pretty decent pix; here are a couple for you. They set the 2 rack trailers out in the field along the road. It was in beans this year, so wasn't bad. When it's in corn, it's a bear, as no air gets through and it's REALLY hot. Plus the guys have to walk quite a ways into the field to bury the tubes for the big shells. At least in beans you can SEE the tubes.
