View of the day-Getting things serviced and loaded in the front yard at home in Yorkton.
Whoops, missed a day or two...
It's not really "the season" yet, but missing a day just doesn't seem right.
Al has been working diligently at getting the General road ready...changing oil, cleaning things up...you know, that sort of thing. A little trip down memory lane as we emptied out the old combine of all the things we had collected throughout the five years we had it...two buckets full of treasures. The rain gauge mounted on the mirror so you know 'exactly' how much it rained at the field, the XM and two way radios for contact with the outside world, the dash duster for those squeaky clean windows that Marilyn insists on, the crap holder on the visor that always seems to have just enough stuff in it so that it spills when you want to get the sun out of your eyes, the bottomless buddy box under the passenger seat that contains various bolts, knife sections, zip ties, manuals, bulbs...and perhaps a cracker or two in case of emergency...and several items classified under the "so that's where the hell that thing is!" category.
Marilyn drove into Moose Jaw on Sunday to spend Mothers Day visiting with her mom and dad. It was a chance to get caught up with her cousin for coffee and also to get her parents computer cleaned up and running smoothly to keep in touch getting the summer updates. She spent the night then left in the rain for Yorkton but by the time she reached Regina it had all but stopped and the sun was shining by the time she pulled into the yard.
Tomorrow the A/C will get fixed on the pickup...it really wasn't even hot on our trip south, but it was sure missed...we have to have one vehicle on the road with A/C. We hope to get the shop trailer loaded into the grain truck and take it and the combine trailer to Carlyle this week so we will only have the camper to pull down next Tuesday after Al's hockey meeting. With the wide load already down there, we can travel after dark with the camper.
Now...back to cleaning and packing...
