This is another throw back post. But when I found these photos on my hard drive my heart skipped a beat and I knew I had to share. We have been fortunate to be the semi drivers and keepers of the semi for Channel Bio for the last many years. Channel Bio used to be several different seed companies. They did a little reorganization and they are now called Channel. Back in the day, the semi was referred to as the BIOFUTURE truck. It was a mobile classroom, complete with flat screen TV's, a kitchen to bake cookies in and an office. They would set up at various events and our family would help with the setup and tear down and would work the event, introducing people to the technology used for the seed corn.I’m not a semi kinda chick, but this baby was cool! It had a big slide out side and a tarp and they laid out carpet and had tables and chairs and an outside TV, trust me, very cool! My then baby and I went to visit his Daddy at the Farm Progress Show once when it was in Decatur, Illinois. This is the boy sporting his super power bracelets and cowboy boots. Look at that face! That tongue was always busy, just like generations of this family before him. Or maybe it was his forward resting position which caused a frontal lisp. (I’m a speech therapist and can’t pass up the explanation.) It’s cute though, no?
His daddy is farmer, his grandpa is a farmer, I think he has potential in agriculture, but the boy’s got rhythm man, and the moves to match!
Plant Channel Seed ya’ll. Boom Diggety, yay…..
Disclaimer: We don’t ONLY plant Channel Seed and I know nothing about it, other than they have a cool semi and have treated us well over the years. When our seed man reads this post, I probably will have another disclaimer, but for now this will do!
