There was a tractor parade, right around the square surrounding the capitol building and then down to campus! The building on the left is the State Historical Society, where they have a huge collection of the McCormick papers. My father has a couple of Farmall tractors, which are a ton of fun to drive.
I've heard of that! Like they get sucked up into water spouts and then come down with the rain? Never actually seen it, but pretty sure if I did I'd get a little nervous that it was The Rapture and I'm about to get "left behind." Because I sin, you see. Uppity Christians.
No problem. You should take advantage of all that farm equipment and ask one of the big strong farmer dudes to use his cherry picker to wash your window. And if you're thinking that was a lame attempt at a sexual metaphor, you'd be correct

I was looking at Mev's work, and saw a spot he missed, so I was going to tell him so, but when I scrolled down I realized the spot was on my monitor. oops.
