I have full respect for the owners and moderators of this great site and do not want to to piss in my Wheaties bringing politics in but ..............
The standing joke is "you may win the race to plant first...........and the race to plant second." The seed companies "luv them long time"
Thanks.
I can be subtle sometimes and simple bolding of some terms made my point.
I live on the top of the bluff looking out across the Mississippi River to Iowa. This is big duck and goose hunting territory. The hunting blinds on the river are highly regulated and sought after. In Illinois every two years there is a lottery for them. The way it used to be and as far as I know still is was our county has a meeting in mid-summer at the Forest Preserve. If you want a chance at a blind you show up with your hunting license and duck stamps. They enter your name in the drawing. Everyone has a map of all the blind locations and they are numbered. As names are drawn that person selects the number of the blind that they want. It can get very heated with confrontation. Up until about 1974 my father and his friend had blind #70 which was a premier location. One day the group was "on the ducks" and harvested 50. In the 1974 drawing someone else took the blind as their name was drawn ahead of Dad. When his name was drawn he took #65 which was not as productive. In 1986 his name did not even get drawn and that was the end of of his duck hunting. It was a sad ride home from the Forest Preserve.
Those trees were taller than the tractor. 6-7 inch stumps and nothing but mulch

So far all seems fine, fingers crossed.
