I had a nice long post typed up last night, but grandma came over and wanted some pictures copied, so I lost the post when I uploaded them to Wal-Mart. <br /> <br /><font color="navy"><b>Paul</b></font id="navy">: Just saw an ad for Six Flags, you should see if they'll let you sneak in one every now and then. <br /> <br />Thanks for the comments on the pics, I like this software. The depot is the old Rock Island depot in Calumet, Oklahoma (long way from New Orleans <b><font color="navy">Neal</font id="navy"></b>, but thanks for the offer) I'm planning on going into electrical engineering at OK State next year. I applied to OU and OSU both, but OSU gave me twice as much scholarship ($2000 per year academic excellence scholarship at OSU vs. $1000 per year Valedictorian at OU), and I got a $1000 one time scholarship from Best Buy. <br /> <br />Oh yeah, it's <font size="3"><font color="yellow"><b><font color="orange">wheat </font id="orange"></b></font id="yellow"></font id="size3">harvest season here now, a really busy time of year for everyone, whether or not you actually have wheat. The grocery store and cafe and parts store stay open long hours, and the service centers double or triple up staff. It's by far the busiest time of year in town, and now the train will have to start running extra (at least once a week) to keep up with the extra traffic. <br /> <br />Still got hay to haul, yesterday Dad and I built fence in 100 degree weather until I had to leave for a doctor's appointment only to find out that the doctor didn't have any appointments this week even though my card says he does. (he's gonna hear about this, it's the second time) and today we hauled a load of iron to the city to sell for scrap. 5,940 pounds of it. We've also got a few hundred pounds each of aluminum and copper to take next, and then we'll start loading up iron again. Don't know where it comes from, we recycle thousands of pounds of metal every year, it doesn't seem like we use that much. <br /> <br />Well, it's getting late now, so I'd better be gettin' outta here. <br /> <br />Greg <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
