View of the day-The valley along the field of barley. The trees have changed so much in the three days we were there.
Pretty much the same day as yesterday. Al unloaded his truck and serviced the combine, then started combining until Marilyn came out and took over. Considering the day started out cloudy and hazy we were still able to start shortly after 10am, so it was a shorter day.
We only had about 60 acres to do and were done by 6:30pm. Al went in with the last full load and got cleaned up to go the the Terriers hockey game in Yorkton. Marilyn finished the field then parked the combine on a high hill to get the best use of what little wind there was to blow off the chaff and dust. Once it was all cleaned off, ready for the canola field we will move to tomorrow, Marilyn headed for the camper.
The laundromat was open in the house (another one with no coin ops) so Marilyn squeezed in a quick load of laundry. Hopefully the water heated up before the farmer came home from his oats field looking for a swish.
Good thing we brought extra blankets from home...freeze warnings for tonight...
