I just received information that my cousin's farm is going under water.  He 
is busily pulling the Diesel pump engines out of Gregory water district and I 
hope pulling his machinery out of the way.  His farm is located about half 
way between Canton, Mo and the junction of the Des Moines and Mississippi 
rivers.  I tried reaching his mother but no luck.  The farm  buildings are up 
on the bluff so they are not in danger.  Most of his 1400 acres of crop land 
is between the bluff and the river just west of Gregory Landing.  As near as 
I can understand he will not have a corn or soybean crop this year.

Corn is up over $7.75, Wheat is back over $9, soybeans are over $15.  I 
suspect many of us will have to make some significant changes in our eating 
and driving this year.  Meanwhile the politicians are avoiding discussing 
real problems and just throwing out platitudes.  The media is spinning around 
talking about flag pins and birth certificates rather than looking for real 
answers and providing real information.
