Soybean harvest started about a week and a half ago. We are 2/3 done with soybeans and all done planting wheat (I think ๐Ÿค”).
It was a late start but we have had some incredible weather that has kept us going.

Happy 1st birthday Karl! ๐ŸŽ‚ ๐Ÿฅณ ๐ŸŽ‰

I will never forget the night he was born 38 days early. The next morning when he was still alive. The first time he stood up. His first steps. When he got really sick and we didn't think he would make it. Moving him from the little cart, to the big cart, to the huts, to the heifer barn...

My kids have this image that he will live to be 20 so their kids can meet Karl.๐Ÿฅน So ๐Ÿป to hopefully another 19+ more.

Side note he does not like corn muffins.

I have to Google why my story is not working. But here is another episode of Karl Eats!

Krysty Kamps here is your ๐ŸŒ suggestion plus a bonus ๐Ÿ.

The kids would like to share more of Karl with all of you. They have started a segment called Karl Eats. I will post it to our stories so that our feed is not taken up by only Karl.
Today on Karl Eats is ๐Ÿ‰ and ๐ŸŽ.
If you have any suggestions on what you would like to see Karl eat let me know.

Sometimes adults and kids experience things for the first time together.
We had a silo taken down this week. It was a first for both Kyle and the boys.
Kyle got a little nervous that it might fall on the feed bags.

We have been very busy the past week harvesting wheat. Everything is going relatively well (it has been rather hot and smoky in Wisconsin). And we are enjoying the new to us grain truck.
For those of you local we appreciate your patience on the roads as we travel with large slow machinery. Don't forget to wave!

I hope everyone is staying cool during this hot spell.

Our cows have fans/misters for cooling. In this heat they still have their struggles. That is why it is important to keep waterers at every point in your barns.

Olive really likes hanging out in the office where the A/C is. Or in the shop in front of the fan.

As for the humans. We make sure we stay hydrated and take frequent trips to the house or office.

I hear ice cream also helps! ๐Ÿ˜‰

We're happy to be hosting a winter shed talk showing some of the work Kevin has done on our GPS and Automated Equipment. Farmers and others in the community interested are welcome to attend! Description of the topic ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿšœ

Cheap RTK Guidance Without a Subscription: Reality or Rabbit Hole?

Kevin Zwieg will share his experiences installing and operating two sub-inch-accurate GPS guidance systems, including auto steer, auto turn, and swath control, based on the open-source software project AgOpenGPS, developed and used by farmers worldwide. The discussion will cover the upsides and downsides, comparisons with commercially available systems, and a deeper look at how RTK and GPS guidance systems work.

Happy New Year!

A new year a new spot for Karl. He has moved out of his hut (crib) and into the heifer barn (preschool). We are well aware that Karl is not a heifer. It has been a long time since we have had a steer on the farm but it looks like Karl will be here for a while.

Him and Olive still love eachother very much! Lisa and I are still his favorite humans. I am curious to see how his personality develops as he keeps graduating.
