This is a new grain storage facility that will be up and running by harvest season.
It is owned by a friend and neighbor. I was asked to run it this fall and I accepted.
It will store three quarters of a million bushels of corn.It is a computerize facility
and very intriguing.I am always looking for a new challenge and looking forward to this one.
There is a huge grain dryer on sight as well.More pictures to follow.

Big task -- great shot, jim! I'd say something corny -- but nevermind! Is all this for people, livestock, or gas tank use?
