Brandon works on washing the Vision truck today.

Here’s the ‘after’ picture of the JD 9360R tractor. See the post for October 12th to view the ‘before’.

The property tax payment went off in today’s mail.  John is washing down the GSI 2326 grain dryer.  That’s a really big task, but it’ll be clean as a whistle, inside and out, when he gets done.  Our backhoe is down right now, there is something going wrong in the fuel injection pump.  That pump has been disconnected from the engine and has been shipped off to a diesel specialist.  John has the sprayer washed and shiny…and “winterized” with RV antifreeze.  It is now stored away until very early spring.  The cold days made us abandon most of our fall spraying in favor of a very early spring herbicide application.

We want to try to get the washing done asap, because the weather forecast is pretty stark:  next week, the high temps will be in the 30s!!!  Ouch!
