This was the scene this morning as I made my way to Springfield, IL and the InfoAg Conference.

This is the POET Biorefining in Laddonia, MO.

The sun was just coming up. I’m sure that if I got out of the car I would have heard some roosters crowing nearby.

It was a very peaceful scene and being set amid the corn fields of mid Missouri, it was a very appropriate picture for the conference going on here.
