I hope everyone is enjoying the warm, dry fall weather. It definitely has pushed along the start of harvest. Fall time of the year brings us so many beautiful colors and of course the harvest sea- son. Many of us are still involved in agriculture and it is a wonderful life. But as with most occupations there are many dangers that can cause injuries or even death. We must be aware of these hazards and think twice, before we make a move to do a repair or just driving on the roads. Farm equipment, like any machine, will continue doing what’s it’s made to do, until the operator kills the pow- er source. Likewise with a vehicle that relies on the operator to be smart enough to yield to farm vehicles and keep it controlled. Please everyone…you all need to use caution in either case…slow down and respect the farmers on the road. There is no excuse not to.
The summer faded away again, and so did the show season. Now, the only farm shows will be in the fields, harvesting crops and tilling the crop land. Like the seasons, the months fly by. Here we are and another club meeting is upon us – October 15th at 7:00 pm in Bonfield. I hope you all can make it. Keep in mind next month is the November Potluck meeting, so bring a side dish to pass and desserts. The club will provide the meat and drinks. I want to remind everyone to remember those who have passed, and those who may be coping with an illness and keep the families in your prayers. We must never forget our Veterans – active and retired or deceased. They have earned our utmost respect for what they do or did to make this country what it is today. God bless them all, and their families. Please be safe in everything you do.
God bless you all and I will see you at the next meeting.
Respectfully,
Dave Wehrmann
