Eagles in the Area

Today is a little brighter but we've seen a little more rain and even snow so far. It's 40 degrees. We've had about 3" of rain in the past 3 days or so - puddles everywhere. The spot where our old house was is settling nicely!

The guys are hauling corn out of the grain bins. Why did they put it in there if they're hauling it out already? If you have grains bins, you can work later at night by putting it into the grain bins if you're working close to them - since the elevator doesn't stay open as late as you can sometimes work. It doesn't take very long to fill 2 semis and the grain cart. The grain bins dry the corn too. Otherwise you have to pay the elevator to dry it. They test each load as it's brought in. Like anything else, there are so many details to learn about with farming.

A couple of weeks ago, Bill was driving by the neighbor's house and spotted these 2 eagles up in their dead tree. He called me so I could call them and Amy got a couple of pictures of them before they flew away! Nice in front of that blue sky. She hasn't seen them since.

Everyone is talking about the big "cat" that Bill, Carl & Pam saw in our field. Bill sure wishes he'd see it again - with gun in hand. A neighbor to our west a couple miles had seen one right outside her house a few months ago. People are wondering if it's safe to walk on the trail.

The Colts games is not on here this weekend - Kansas City instead. Not happy.
