Nice pics. I like those old Gleaners

I like to go "combine spotting" too. I I have been flying wildlife survey in western ND and see a ton of "worked when parked" combines of every color.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

How do you keep your eyes on the road?

Wish I was your neighbor and friend. I"d join you at the "drop of a hat" to make a trip like that!!

So much old iron just wasteing away. But I think the cost of hauling it prevents a lot more of it being saved.

Hello Blaine, always enjoy your trips,as we all get a glimpse of what you see. Thanks Blaine

Yeah Blaine ,,, WHAT ANDE Said ,,,

Very nice photos - -THANKS for sharing!

Just curious about the raising of the steamers from the Solomon River - - Did you happen to hear what brand/models they are, how did they get ijnto the river, and what are they going to do with them?

Thanks & Regards,
John

Nice photo's as always. You will have to give me some notice next time and stop by and visit. Did you get any photo's of three MH 21 up for auction up north?

Everyone,thanks for all the nice comments..Later this month I hope to go to western and southwestern Kansas for 3-4 days to take pictures...I wish that you could all go with me...I'll probably run across some more old combines.

4" of wet heavy snow here this morning..Took some of the wheat flat..
