Nothing New...

Hey guys,
  I just got back home from up in the pasture chasing the cows back in and fixing fence, as our cows never seem to want to stay in the fence anymore... :P  Andrew and I took up some quads, and got them back in and opened up another pasture for them.

  Other then that, today has been kind of quiet for me, as I stayed home all morning and worked on school work (again).  Dad and Andrew went up to the CRP field that we had made hay on earlier, and staked out a 50 acre plot, as we are going to farm 50 acres of it next year! :D

  Dad went trucking right after lunch again today.  He's got a lot of hauling to do for our friend, and for the local elevator too if they need help.  Cora went over to babysit for the neighbors again this morning as well, so the house is kind of quiet now with just mom and me here...

  So, as you have deduced, school is really starting here, so I'll be posting every day again, trying to figure out what to write about while nothing new and interesting is happeneing... :P  Anyways, I leave you with a picture, and a goodbye, Jacob B. ;)

.......

Hey guys,
  As always, my post's are spaced few and far between, but that is about to change now that Mom has started the school season in full swing, so expect to hear more from me in the near future, and I will try to keep you up to date with my life.

  So, Andrew has been keeping busy with harvesting sunflowers for the guy that he was harvesting corn for, Dad is trucking the corn away, Cora has been keeping busy with babysitting, Mom with her sessions, and me with my project and school...

  As for my project, I havnt been able to do much on it latley, as Mom has corraled me into school work.  I did get some work done on it though, untill we wanted to play ping pong and it got pushed out of the shop... :P

  Well, I cant really think of much more to write about today, Andrew drove up to Minot to pick up something, I'm feeling kind of let down by the FS13 demo wich was slightly below par, and I'm not all that cracked up about school, as normal, lol... 

  Talk to you all later, Jacob B.

Update

Hey guys,
  Mom has been pushing me a lot to get into school more and more lately, so I guess I'll be writing on here and on my other blog a lot more often now, at least when I'm not busy working on other projects... :)

  Last Thursday, Andrew and I went to Bismarck to run some errands and pick up some stuff.  We bought a ping pong table on that day, so we have been having a bunch of fun playing around on that, at least, until we had to fold it up to make room for my new project...

  That's right, I have a new project!  My latest purchase is a 2001 Land Rover Discovery 2! (pictures to come later, sorry)  It was actually my doctor's car, until she overheated it, blew a head gasket, and then went and bought a new car instead of fixing this one, so I got it cheap! ($500 8o )

  Just for your information, if you hadn't heard of "Land Rover" before, it's a British car imported to the US... :P  On a different note, just 9 days until FS13, so I'm excited! :)  Anyway, I'll talk to you all later, Jacob B. ;)

update

Hey guys,
  Yes, I know, I haven't been writing very regular, but real life work comes before school, so... :P  Anyways, we have all been keeping very busy with corn harvest and all of the things that come along with that, like fixing the combine........

  We have got our "new" combine, a JD 8820, going on the corn harvest now, and it seems to be working pretty good, which is a relief, as when you buy things at auction sales, you never know what your getting....  Lets just hope it continues to work well! :)

  Andrew has been combining corn for a farmer friend of ours.  He's running a brand new Case IH 7088! (lucky bugger :P)  I've been doing school work whenever it fits into my schedule, which hasn't been too often... :P

  Well, I would write more, but Dad just came in and gave me a list of things to do, so I guess I had better go out and start on that.  I will talk to you all later, Jacob B

Schools back in. again. i think. :P

Hey guys,
  As you may have guessed, the school season is drawing near, and it's no different around here, so that's why I've started writing more regular again.  I'll try not to bore you all out with Farming Simulator news again this year, lol.

  That being said, not a whole lot has happened around here sense I last wrote you all.  I'm still battling this blasted cold, Mom's up in town doing sessions, Cora's babysitting, Dad's trucking, and Andrew went over to help a neighbor harvest his 1500 acres of corn...

  Andrew has been buying up vehicles left and right again, his latest project being a Arctic Cat 4 wheeler with some engine problems.  He just got that fixed the other day, so now we have a nice new quad on the place!  That is, until he sells it... :P

  Farming Simulator 2013 is looking nice so far, although still arcade, as normal... Yesterday it was 4 weeks until release date, so I'm looking forward to more info soon on that.  Well, it looks like it's time for me to go again, so I'll talk to you all later. Jacob B.

A Recap of Recent news.

Hey guys,
 I know it's been a long time sense I've written to you all, but I have been busy over the summer doing field work, and all sorts of other stuff...  I'll try to touch on the events that have happened sense I last wrote you all, but I know I can't get them all in one post... lol

  On one of the later weekends of August, we held an Appleseed shoot at our place, on our own range that we had set up a few weeks earlier.  We had a lot of fun during the event, and playing volleyball afterwards... ;)

  On a more recent note, last Wednesday, Dad and I went to Fargo to see the Big Iron Farm Show, and on the way, we found a lot full of equipment that was going to be sold at auction on the 14th, or last Friday.  We had a great day at Big Iron, even though I did have this cold then already... :(

  On Friday then, Dad; Andrew; and I went over by Jamestown to the consignment auction, as we had seen some things that we were interested in.  We had a great time spending cash... lol.  We bought a Deere 8820 combine, a 60' grain auger, a air compressor, and some other tools... :)

  Talk to you later, I gotta go;)
