My dad help create the center pivot irrigation systems that blanket the bread basket of Kansas. I fondly remember going out on projects in the 70’s with him. He wasnt a scientist, only graduated the 8th grade before having to go to work to help support his family. But was a master machinest and mechanical engineer, knew about sun dogs, atmospheric phenomenon, 7-11 year cycle of sun spots and how they effected our weather and on and on.

Thanks Dad!
