Yesterday we closed up our silo by doing one last pack with the tractor and covering the entire silo with a piece of 5 mil. plastic. To hold the plastic in place and keep the oxygen out we then cover it with 200 old tires. This is the most interesting part of the process. There is nothing like standing on the ground while your wife is throwing water-filled tires at you trying to see how far she can get it to splash. Another special thanks to Cousin Cindy for her help. She is a tried and true veteran when it comes to silo closing. Even our three year old got into the act after we lost some tires and he was soaked. They are never too young to get that first tire bath.
