This book documents all the segments in the transition from dryland farming to irrigated farming with gated pipe. It starts with a dirt ditch with cuts made in the side of the ditch to wooden lathe nailed together to form a tunnel from the ditch to the field.

Later, gated pipe replaced the siphon tubes.The book documents one family's transition from about 1938 to about 1967. The farm grew from 320 acres to more than one thousand acres with corn yields more than quadrupling in that period in some fields. It documents a community barn dance during one winter's blizzard and attending a one room country schoolhouse with twenty-five students in the entire school. Later, during school consolidation, the country school was transferred to the local town school where each class had twenty-five students. We had access to school buses and a hot lunch program.Machinery evolved from John Deere B's with about fifteen horsepower pulling two-row equipment to John Deere 4020's.with eighty or more horsepower pulled eight-row equipment plus harvest was done with self-propelled combines with four to eight row heads. The change in farm production was dramatic. As the old corn picker was replaced with the self-propelled combine, so were the corn sheds replaced with grain bins.

My heartfelt thanks to all who have encouraged this publishing. Through the years, my desire was to publish and share with others who may need encouragement. Many poems have been emailed and handed to those in need along the way. As friends and loved ones were in valleys and going through trials, God would give me words of encouragement for them. Every poem was written out of a need someone had that the Lord sent my way. The poems span many years of writing and are from the heart, as the Holy Spirit led. May the words continue to bless and encourage those who read. God has answered so many prayers through the years, and with the publishing of this the poetry, yet another is answered. May God bless each of you.
I found Angels to Aliens to be great collection of firsthand accounts. The author made a very enjoyable and easily readable selection from the vast number of accounts that had been given to him. Countless times I was struck by the common threads to many of the cases in his collection that are also found in the literature of each topic. His work drives home the point that if you just take the time to simply and politely ask, many will tell you their story. As the reader goes through these stories, many will hear much of the thoughts and feelings of those whom had these strange happenings and most will relate thoughts and feelings of those whom had these strange happenings and most will relate to then. This is more than just a mere collection of "Campfire Ghost Stories", as it brings home the human element and personal connection that cannot be shared by a second hand telling. The reader will be thrilled, humbled and amazed by the courage and bravery that each of his storytellers bring to life with their accounts of experiencing the unexplained. I have read and actually have been in parts of many books of all aspects of the unexplained in my decades of my work in the field, but I can say that this book is well worth the time to invest in reading if you like to hear from the horse's mouth.

Observing and Diagnosing America is an attempt to focus the attention of Americans to the problem they pose for themselves and other immigrants in their midst, it highlights the alienation usually felt by naturalized citizens of the United States and the cycle of vicious behaviors toward an innocent population. The book shows that the racist attitudes that were the bases of the founding of the American nation must be discarded, making all immigrants welcome both naturally and psychologically and eliminating discord between races in the country. Unless immigrants come to grip with the situation at hand and start treating one another with respect, the fabrics holding the nation together may break apart at the seams.
