July 13

Another great day, not the bad luck Friday the 13. Al got busy early, taking the grain truck to town to get a new tire. Marilyn serviced and was able to start combining at 10:30am, what a nice change.

With the long haul to Winner, there was some waiting for the combine, as the truck, cart and combine would be full. Marilyn had to leave the combine and drive the full truck to meet Al on the highway and switch out for the empty truck. We managed to finish the field by sunset, but couldn't get moved to the last field.

Wonder of wonders, there is no rain in the forecast for the next while, or at least until we are done. Today was over 90 and tomorrow there is a possibility of hitting the century mark, so everything is plenty dry.

There's nothing like loading up in the heat...
