July 5, 2013

View of the day-Well, it isn't today, unless you want to see the inside of a Walmart. No, it's a picture of a self propelled grain cart. They are scans from photos, so the quality isn't that great, but you get the idea.

This rig was made by Bob Lemieux out of a airport pumper truck.  Bob and his wife Janie(Marilyn's cousin) were on the harvest run in the 80's, then took 20 year's off before getting back into it after their kids were grown. 
Bob likes to build things, so he went to work on this unit and it got the job done until they decided to lay off the harvesting and  got rid of their Gleaners and the SP grain cart.

It's unfortunate that on a two blog day, one of them has to suffer, but tomorrow we move on.

Something is bound to happen...
