This is something we haven’t seen in a while… a rainy day.  And from the forecast, it looks like we will have a rainy week.  According to the Channel 10 news out of Terre Haute, the area is over 3″ below average rainfall for the year already.  Maybe this week will catch us up. I’m hearing some thunder this morning!

It is a gloomy, gray, rainy day at Carnahan & Sons.

I’ve been laying low at home for several days, trying to get over this flu and other stuff that’s had me down.  I’m feeling a bit stronger today, and I’m grateful for that.

One last machine needs some attention before #plant26 arrives.  The JD N550 soybean drill was inspected last winter and from that a list of repairs/parts was developed.  We secured all the needed replacement parts (a whole pallet-full of them) and that work is yet to be done.  Our shop, while nice, is too small to get the drill in and unfold it.  So, we wait for a couple warm and dry days to make those upgrades.  It’ll happen this month, surely… but it won’t be today!

I’m estimating 2 days of work to get these parts from this box to installed on the air drill

Have a great day today!
