Makin' Money with Metal

Well, the scrap metal pile was getting out of hand and the price of metal is pretty good right now, so my farmers decided to load up and make some money.  They've got anything from silo augers, elevator chains, pieces of old gates, a tank of some sort, to a couple of old washing machines.  I'd say this farm truck was a little overloaded with 1,840 pounds worth of scrap metal.  I thought that looked like a pretty big pile of junk until I got to the scrap yard with my farmer. 

That place was busy with people dumping off stuff!  I'd say we had the biggest load  compared to everyone else, though.  The tailgate actually fell off when my farmer opened it. Shhh! Don't tell Grandpa!  We got it back on good after the truck was unloaded.  What a hot and sweaty job that was for my farmer to unload all of that.  Don't you think he deserved an ice cream cone to cool him down and make him feel better?

Makes you wonder what all of that scrap metal will be made into someday.  Reminds me of this quote from Bro. Branham:

"I said, "I'm thinking about a great big magnet, setting yonder in the sky. That's a dynamo of the Holy Ghost." And there's people down here being magnetized. If you want to be aluminum or shackled down with some creed, go ahead. But there's some people magnetized to it. And someday God's going to press the button. That magnet's coming down, and she's going yonder over to be made. Hallelujah. Amen. They'll go to the cupola of God's refinery and be made creatures in Christ Jesus that'll never die again.
                                 Hallelujah. Amen. Yes, sir."54-0811
