About 75% of the beans germinated during the first dry period.
About 15% more germinated after the rain 4 weeks later.. weird..
Then it dried out and has not rained in almost 4 weeks. They’re all still hanging in there. I swear the only reason they’re still growing is because I chisel plowed the field and gave them 10-12” of root zone to chase moisture way down.

Made it down to the postage stamp a couple of hours ago. Last 10 miles, or so, the transmission was getting sketchy in the GTG van.
We'll just have to see how things go. My kids are aware of the predicament and are standing ready to bring me home and come back with a truck to pull my flat bed trailer home with Sunday. Might have to leave the van here. I'll know more in a couple of hours. Let it cool down and test drive it a bit.

Looks like the problems with the transmission in the GTG van are electrical related. The shifting is controlled by the computer through sensor inputs. Transmission guy at Ford said to check the Tone Ring in the differential. Make sure it's clean with no nicks in the teeth. Saturday, when I changed the VSS, I noticed it was covered in "fuzz". Took the rear end cover off and washed out everything inside the rear end housing and took it out for a test drive last night.
After 40 miles of highway driving, and no problems with it, I'm thinking he's right.
More electrical testing to be done.

What year is it? A buddy of mine had a 93 or 94 f150 and the thing started shifting funny then the speedo stopped working. After getting an outrageous quote from Ford on replacing the speed sensor his bro told him to check the fuse for it.

The thing wasn't even blown, but after removing it and reinstalling it that thing didn't have another problem.

It's a 96.
I'll try that with the fuse, too.
It's a connection issue, I'm sure of that.

Appointment with the neurologist yesterday went well. We now starting a RX to slow down Barbara’s dementia. [emoji106]

This is like three years late thanks to the quack she used to see for her yearly checkup. Dr was aware of the memory loss but did nothing about it.

Chit head! [emoji2962]

Dr. gave me a look at the image of the tumor in her head. It’s not the culprit for the dementia he claims.

Likely cancer but we are not going with radiation and chemo. Barb wouldn’t want it and neither do I or Sarah. Not on someone in poor health at 80 yo.

Sorry to hear this Carl...
