Yeah it's been cloudy and raining off and on for the last few days. The lot by the bins is pretty muddy.

What camera do you use for all these great pictures?

@Tanner - SC I have a Samsung Galaxy S9+

Do you think we have enough filters?

How does the diesel or whatever fuel get to you to fill all those machines?

@Tanner - SC We use diesel for practically everything, ag-diesel for all of our tractors and combines. The fuel comes in on trucks mostly. Some of it might move by train up from the Gulf coast. There are distribution centers just like for normal gasoline and diesel. We actually get most of our fuel from the local gas station. The tanks we have on the farm are filled by the same tankers that deliver to the gas stations. Once it's here we have our own fuel trucks that we use to bring it to tractors and combines out in the field.

If you scroll back up to Jun 11 you can actually see me filling one of our sprayers.

This wrench isn't big enough.

This forklift is even more terrifying to drive than the other one.

That ole puppy makes his way into 25% of your pics

He has the heart of a show pony.

She follows me everywhere so it's not a surprise.

At least one girl likes me. I scared the last one all the way back to Australia.

Damn, dude, didn't go well?

@John O - it went ok. She still is writing me every day but she was definitely home sick and not ready to move to a new country where she doesn't have any family. I'm just going to keep writing her and maybe go to Australia during the winter to see her.

Bro, that's awesome. Is she a small town girl?

Home schooled farm girl.

She's very conservative, literally never worn pants.

😏

That's very cool, man, I hope it works out

No wonder she couldn't handle a week away from home, tbh

She's was here 3 months. She was just in Wisconsin and I didn't know that she was here. My pastor actually introduced us. I'm amazed no one else tried to date her. I was apparently the only guy to show any interest in her.

The only real reason she had to go back is because her tourist visa was about to expire and if she wanted to stay we would have had to get married.

It's very trad to marry a girl after meeting a week prior

Yeah the whole thing is super trad. In case anyone is reading this and is wondering what we're talking about there's a girl who is a member of my church and her family is the only family in Australia that has fellowship with us. So her father sent her and her sister to find husbands in America.

>and her sister

Bruh what church

Her sister is apparently already dating someone. Which is fine by me because I got the cuter younger one.

Loading sunflowers.

I was about to say “hop on Farmers Only or Christian Mingle, you can easily find a girl from the next town over” but,

>She's very conservative, literally never worn pants.

Ooh, that gave me a tingle. Love me some ladies in dresses, way too rare these days. So feminine and wholesome.

But still, you can find ones near you that will have a much higher return on investment.

I have a date Sunday with a girl on eHarmony whose profile pic is in a dress and is an open conservative. Multiple women on Christian Mingle say in their profile that they’re homeschooled and greatest goal is to be a good mother.

Edit: just read the rest and ... wow. Keep us informed.

@Tanner - SC it's kind of a unique situation. I love her and honestly I'd marry her in a heartbeat, but she is only 19 and not ready to move away from home yet. My church is also super conservative German Lutheran and ever since I have become more involved in the church the more important finding a wife who shares my religious beliefs has become. Even during IEs conference I would probably have called myself borderline agnostic but I prayed for a wife and the next day my pastor sent me an email. Honestly I don't know if there's any coming back from this point.

>Maybe go to Australia during the winter

I would go earlier. Go meet her family, win them over. You’ll learn more about her. They might help encourage her into your arms, they might decide to move to America to facilitate their 2 daughters’ relationships. But 6 months without her is too long.

Sounds like a great situation.
