Monday, Oct 30 was a "dumb things you gotta do day". We needed to get an alignment on the front end of the RV and they couldn't get us in until 1:00, so the day was pretty much shot. It was good to have that service completed!
Tuesday, Oct 31, we headed down the road to Guymon, OK. Probably the most interesting thing we saw on this drive was big feedlots and massive piles of grain stored on the ground under plastic. Some of them were at grain elevators and some were at feedlots. There were lots of semi trucks moving grain around.

| Note the aeration fan in the sideboard at the base of the pile. This is to keep the grain from heating and spoiling due to uneven distribution of moisture. |
Where ever there was a source of water with which to irrigate, the land seemed to be very productive. Without irrigation, it was pretty barren.
