Great U2 blend... always been one of my favs. That is one big tractor... is it even called that? I was hoping to see you in the peacock... that outfit has tickled me since helmut & the pig...

Thanks Lima - It's called a combine. Later they run the wagon pulled by a tractor alongside so it doesn't have to stop like we did to unload. Really cool to watch. This one is brand new, and he's clocked in 240 hours on this harvest which he hopes to finish Oct. 8th.

Persephone (as portrayed by Flop) kicks ass (and hay rolls). You even make new-fangled corn harvesting technique sexy. I can hear Hades making a crack about ploughing your fields
(Chig made me say that,...oKAY oKAY,.......Syd made me say that).

Persephone has some very interesting adventures! And keeps current with advances in farming technology... a smart woman all around. *wink*

I happened to be eating my lunch while watching this, which included succotash, and I couldn't help thinking about the corn kernals in my teeth as I was watching the ears of corn get gleaned off the stalks by the combine. What a journey between there and here. I'm going to say grace to Persephone from now on.

I was munching corn Cheesies myself. At least it wasn't pomegranate seeds. Hey Persephone, where are you and Hades wintering this year?

This vid, by the way, ROCKS.

You know, your vids always got the best production value.

I liked the way you kick the tires and then the big roll of wheat[?]. NJ: Persephone's mom, Demeter, does all the hard work and deserves your prayers. Pers just waltzes in and acts like she's the one responsible.

@Blanche - plowing, ploughing - I can read yer thots
@Marie - glad you're here
@ Annelida - I can't believe the baler man!!
@LTadams - Hope I don't get a bill for flattening the first 10 feet.
@ Nj - well sufferin' succotash - don't listen to Geoff - he has no appreciation for big AG middle management
@ Geoff, Thanks - I got smug little satisfied face when I kicked stuff.
