I went by the Hesston plant a couple weeks ago and swung in to see if there was anything interesting there. The area where they used to run trials is fenced off now with a solid board fence, Dammit! I guess they don't want to accomodate nosy people like me anymore.

I drove through the place a few years ago, saw lots of big balers an semi trailers full of components. A couple guys waved, nobody said anything. Bet I couldn't do that now.

I always enjoyed watching the NFR when Hesston sponsered the TV broadcast. I still have some of those old belt buckles. I enjoyed the rodeo and the commercials. That was about the only time we got to see a rodeo on TV back then.JP
