Fall is here

[Faust100F]

55, what are you running your cylinder and concave at on the green one?

LMAO! what cylinder and what concave? WTF are they? Help I have fallen and cannot get up, I am laughing so hard. Ia55 these guys actually believe we give a rats *** about concave and cylinder settings, here in the rural backwater we just drive um . . . we do not fix or adjust them. John

[ECI]

Poor 'ol Red just can't get a break. It ran most of the afternoon except for the time I spent taking out a grate, backing up the rotor with the wrench then tightening the rotor belt that was smoked after I plugged it severely with green stem beans. I'd blame it on ECI but he called just as I was ready to throw it in gear and clean it out AFTER all of the above things. Got anther 500 bu done after eci's call.

The 9600 made five passes. Greenie is now waiting on a "house call" by the "vet".

I haven't told 'ol Red yet, but the visit from the neighbor across the fence from this field this afternoon wasn't a social call, he wants 'ol Red to combine his corn and beans too.

I baled a few bean straw bales this morning. Even after going through the chopper on the combine I raked each pass into a windrow and each 3/8th mile windrow made 3 bales with a 568 Deere baler.
Just a tremendous amount of material going through the combine.

Boy's tht was a CLOSE one for ole ECI ! I WAS going to call 55 earlier But I was saved by the Memphis Bell ( B-17 ) ! The Bell has been at Mount Comfort since Thursday - giveing rides , I was also cutting beans and thought I'd better check on 55 , had phone in hand and then seen the Bell low and slow -- headed MY way ! I thought --- oh chit , I had better let the combine cool down for a shut down ! The Bell made a couple of pasts to the north east and then to me and then a couple of pasts around Morristown , Damn them 4 Wright R 1820's sure did sound good ! BTW the pilot is a S I L of a friend in Morristown , so I figured it would do a fly over .

Then I MADE the call to 55 , as he said he was ready to throw the switch when I called , the only problem that he did was NOT to tighten the rotor belt BEFORE ! instead of smokeing the belt it would have KILLED her in her tracks --- BTW I have did that before !
This is a big OH FK moment !

As far a leafs here ? for the most part they just fell off -- from dry weather i guess , a few pretty deep red .
