Weekend Trip to Dekalb

We took a little weekend trip to Dekalb this weekend.  Route North was I-55 to I-39 to IL 64.  Route home was Hwy 23 to I -55.  Headed both ways, corn harvest is 75 to 90% finished south of I-80.  North of I-80, corn and soybean harvest is about 25% of each.  We only saw one person harvesting corn today at Dekalb.  Lots of combines were in the field going after soybeans.  Some tillage was done pretty much everywhere we went.

I had a great time watching NIU football with my son.  I ran into a Northern Illinois Soil and Water Conservation District employee and got caught up on some old Northern Illinois Friends.  I moved south in 1986 and never got back up there for work purposes.
