Chicago Run

A family emergency took me to Chicago and Dekalb in Sunday and Monday. I took 251 thru Lee and LaSalle counties for old time sake.  It looks like this week's weather and crop report is pretty accurate regarding corn and soybean harvest.  Northwest and Northeast are a little behind the rest of the state.  Corn harvest was going  fast along 251.  Combines were in the field in every direction I could see.  Soybean harvest is ahead of corn harvest in Northern Illinois.  We had an inch of rain in Hillsboro in the past 24 or so hours.  U should not saturate the soil for more than a day.
