Happily, this evening's dinner fish taco was washed down with a refreshing beer. Reminded me of my encounter the other day with a giant beer-making machine. Well, sort of. This Case combine was opened up for some maintenance work - just in time to get it in fine shape for a weekend of barley harvesting. Said barley headed, of course, to become many, many nice cold beers. The combine separates the grain from the stalks, so it's also producing barley straw (which another incredibly complex machine slurps up off the ground and turns into bails for countless other uses). I'm reminded of a politician who recently said that farming was easy - just poke a hole in the ground and put in a seed, anyone can do it. Nope, that's not what farmers do, not even close! These million dollar machines require expert (and expensive) maintenance to play their part in putting food on our tables and beer in our glasses to wash it down.

 

Any behind-the-scenes photos to share, this Nikon Wednesday? Of course, any photo will do. Go!combine_1.thumb.jpg.0c2af57406b9811d424cab3c3389fc8a.jpg
