So my dad has decided to un-retire and try and get a job so he can afford to buy more farmland in western KS. He just got a haircut and shaved his beard so he must be serious.

Steve Dave, did your family upgrade to the Nextel push to talk cell phone/walkie talkies in the early 2000s like all the farmers I know?

no, went to combo of two way radios and just regular cell phones. I was the first kid in HS to have a cell phone. it was not as giant as zac morris's but was plenty giant. would fit in my pocket but the antenna stuck out. sddad had that one and one of the vehicle ones on a stand. still honked his pickup horn if he didn't answer though. don't know the exact date of letting the two way radio die out. I was in college by then.

It's a thing.  I had a buddy who took his dad's truck hunting once and it was doing it all the time.

not as wild as the truck honking but tons of my farm friends had a super loud bell that rang on the outside of their house when the landline inside rang.

Our fat center had a big mudding truck and a dixie horn for it and would blow it every time he showed up to school. #EudoraStuff

Antique equipment of the week.  The 2 row John Deere planter.  Hopefully operational for sweet corn this spring.

do you get to label your corn "artisanal" if you plant it with that thing?

LOL.  Cousin wondered why I was laughing as he greased that skid steer on Saturday... then he sent me to the shop to get a zerk to replace one he broke off loading hay.  I had to help him get the grease gun working.

IT, he maintained servers or something that is the exact opposite of farming.
