InfoExpo can be kind of relaxing when seminars are in progress. Here at the boelte-hall booth it was time to play darts.
Rocking With Quasimojo
After getting back to the Portland Hilton (and air conditioning) from our river cruise it was party time. Wait a minute. What were we doing on the boat?
Fountain Fun In The Sun
What do you do when it’s about 100 degrees out and there’s a water fountain you can get into? You jump into it.
Dueling Satellite Radios Video
Here’s another edition of “Dueling Satellite Radios.” This time I have a video clip for you. Keep in mind that these aren’t factory installed and only temporary in the truck I’m driving.
Playing In The Parking Lot
Hang in there with me AgWired fans. By next week I’ll be back to a more normal posting schedule. This cross country convoy gig is taking up a lot more time each day than I thought. However, the relationships and contacts I’ve been making are fantastic. We are allowed to play sometimes as we trek across the United States on I-80. Here’s Bob Lee (left), founder of Country Coach, Inc. with one of the toys he brought on the trip.

Cross Country Dueling Satellite Radios
Posting will be kind of sporadic here in the next 2 weeks. At least I think so. This AASHTO cross country convoy is a busy day of activities. You can read a lot more about it on Domestic Fuel. Anyway, one of the things I’m going to be doing is a thing I’m going to label, “Dueling Satellite Radios.” I’ll have more on this but you’ll hear about it in the video clip I’ve got for you here. I mention it because it’s “new media” and I’ve got a great interview coming up for you this weekend with a VP from XM Satellite Radio. You probably know I’m a Sirius subscriber but I’ve also got XM in the truck I’m driving so it’s going to be a cross country side-by-side comparison and I wonder who will win.
Tanya Tucker The Tractor Racer
The last contestant in today’s tractor race was Tanya Tucker. Boy did the crowd love her.
Mr. New Holland West Kentucky
Here’s Mr. New Holland himself, Robert Hendrix. I think he’s a very distant relative of Jimi.
