Gracie decided to give us a presentation regarding current world shipping issues. She thinks she is so smart. But she is wrong about port congestion. If we allow anyone to drive commercial trucks there will be no backup of containers moving inland. Gracie, a tip for public speaking, Never turn your back to the audience. We had "Demo Days" at work again this past week. I was busy on most of the days, but I went up to the demo site after the event was over on Friday and took a look at machines we have on site.

It is labor day weekend again. The weather has been great for the last couple of days. It is actually summer. Today I am mowing fields, working on tractors and some other stuff. Yesterday I passed my FAA written test in Rome NY. I talked my mentor into flying up there. It was a great experience. The old Griffiths Air Force Base is now a municipal airport. It has a huge runway designed for B52s. Now they closed the first 2500 feet. Just the portion they closed is longer than my whole home airport in Greene. Can you see the sleeping raccoon in the tree?
