The lines are unbelievably long at the elevator. In the photo below, I am a mile out of town and you can see them lined up in both directions from the corner that they turn to go around a block before they even get on the elevator property.
Below, I am just coming in closer to town....
I have turned the corner and gone to the other end of the block where they turn in the photo below....They will go all around that huge building. There are probably 20 to 25 more trucks ahead of that little red one, just waiting to go across the scale and more ahead of that waiting to dump the grain and more ahead of that waiting to go back across the scale to weigh out and head back to their farm. We were blessed with an abundant crop (most of which is still too wet) and we are very thankful! =)
You can't see it from this angle, but there are about 10 trucks lined up behind the little red one....I boxed up some old clothes and coats and am going to take them to a new consignment store that opened in Wahoo this afternoon. I stopped in there the other day and they have some nice things, but didn't find anything I couldn't live without....I am, of course, trying to get rid of stuff...hehe... Thought I would give it a try. I have been giving everything to the thrift store, but would be nice to get a little something out of a few things that I know I won't wear anymore.

With those long lines you are sitting in, me thinks you should take up quilting! You could have a couple made by Christmas at this rate! Ha! Thanking the Lord for your abundant harvest! He is GOOD!
Thankfully, I am not the one in the trucks. June and I used to drive the little grain trucks up, but you need CDL licenses for the semis and I do not want to get one. I stay home and babysit the grain dryer and cook and run the guys around...and take photos once in a while! =)
Great pictures of the trucks...hope all the guys have lots of patience! And yes, tell my brother he can't fix EVERYTHING, although he comes close! :-)
