Welcome!

I would like to welcome you to my blog for the 2008 Farm Progress Show! I have been given a great opportunity by Monsanto to see the inner-workings of one of America's favorite farm shows. I will be attending all 3 days of the show visiting various booths, shows, events, and displays in order to bring you up-to-date on the happenings at the Farm Progress Show. Check daily for new information, pictures, and even videos!

Rain or Shine: Farm Progress still abuzz


Despite the weather, thousands of people are still filtering into the Farm Progress Show this morning. Other than walking from exhibit to exhibit, you can easily stay fairly dry here. Almost all of the tents are covered, if not fully enclosed. And on top of that many company's came prepared. I have seen many different ponchos and umbrellas being handed out, all branded with the respective company's logo. People are tying bags around their feet and over their shoulder just to continue their adventure here at the Farm Progress Show. So in case you were debating your visit here to the show today, I would say "Come on over!" So grab your jacket out of the closet, roll up your pants, and don't forget your umbrella (or grab a free one here) and come enjoy the many different events still going on today. And look on the brighside, the crowds are smaller today!
Check the weather for Boone, IA out yourself if you'd like. It looks like rain all day today and possibly tomorrow.
