 Iowa Gold
Here is a series of pictures I acquired during my recent Holiday to Clayton County Iowa, the place of my birth.  My nephew was selling Iowa Gold (a.k.a. Corn).


Inside the corn bin with the auger to take the corn to the pit
for elevation to the outside truck

Shooting from the auger to the truck

Under the careful eyes of the truck driver

The entire drying operation as well as the system to ship the corn

Almost ready to go.  The truck is almost full

Preparing for the Colorado 
Elk Hunt


This Iowa Tractor Boy is working with his Pack Mule as he and three others make final preparations to travel to Colorado to hunt Elk.

In addition to honest work this Iowa Tractor Boy knows how to enjoy life.
