25 pounds of grolleg porcelain: the purest, cleanest porcelain out there. After 13 years of sitting in a box, the mold has come in strong. The clay is the consistency of cream cheese and due to the mold, is considered a premier vintage due to the plasticity mold achieves.

So this is the pottery version of a Chateau Lafite-Rothschild Pauillac 2000.

And what shall it become?

That's my daughter with her best bud, Kona. Kona thinks he's pretty cool when he is sporting his goggles.

Stopped just east of Pierre on Saturday for a combine ride. Their biggest wheat crop ever and they are running out of storage.

I forget sometimes that different parts of the country have different growing seasons, wheat was done a month ago here in East NC.
Love riding on combines and the kids do too.

This was winter wheat, a few more weeks and they'll be doing spring wheat in ND and NW MN. Then beans, peas, soybeans, canola, corn and sunflowers into November. My brother manages a custom harvesting crew that goes from late April into Nov. OK to the Canadian border.

I will have to see if I can get a pheasant invite to the SD farm. He said it's the most pheasants he has seen in the 13 yrs he has been harvesting there.

I always find it interesting all the other crops grown in some places. I automatically think corn and beans. 99% of everything is corn and beans here.

My cousin worked with a custom harvest crew for one year, then he met a Montana girl and married her and moved there.

I've never seen anyone plant spring wheat here, only winter red.
Then we have mainly corn, soybeans, cotton, potatoes, cabbage and peanuts in my area. Little to the west they have tobacco and sweet potatoes as well and some specialty crops with some farmers like mount olive pickles.

We had a pretty mild winter, a good spring with plenty of cover, and haven't been too hot until about this week. That weather makes a lot of birds!

And what shall it become?

Likely going to mix it in with another 100 pounds of grolleg I have that's dried out. Then I need to build a wood fired kiln to fire it in.

My brother wishes that SD had east river NR deer tags. They only give permission to a select few on this property and they see a few nice deer.

I made the drive up for a day to see a bunch of old friends. What a great convention. SD did a hell of a job putting it on.

Almost ran him over. Small deer down here compared to up North, but a decent 8-point for us. Much clearer in the video, at time 17:50.
