      My College Soil Science Professor would love this. Most people don't understand frost heaving. Think about ice cube tray. When freezes cubes move up . Same about soil with rocks, heavy things move up . Then soil drops. Then rocks get to sun tan 😎

    Chet, I know and have seen throughout the years that you like to have fun and cut up a little, but I have notice that you are and should be turning into your dad and your dad, slowly turning into you Grandad. That is the circle of life, but it keeps the farm in check for your generation, now it is time for you to start getting the next Larson generation ready, as much as you like to have fun this should be easy for you...

    I remember helping my grandfather pick rocks one time. It seemed odd because the fields didn’t have rocks anywhere else and once they were removed there were never any again.
    I’d always imagined a settlers wagon with a load of rocks had a catastrophic breakdown and he dumped them there on the prairie so he could limp back to his homestead with the breakdown. The nearest rocks from the farm are 8-10 miles away…

Don't know if they are sold here in UK, don't think so, 'tis a pity, but there are some wonderful machines here to compare them with. Thanks for the visit, it was worth the effort in the long run. Hope everything goes to plan. I'll say no more, All the best from UK.
