June 12, 2008


View of the day-Trouble is trying to start...those little puffs that build into something big.

Another good day even with the "moist" fields and terraces. Al changed oil on the combine and Marilyn fueled and serviced, then it was time to tackle the rest of the field.

Al spent most of the day sitting in line at the elevator, but it didn't hold Marilyn up back at the field. The only time the combine stopped was when Marilyn had to take the cart up to the yard to fill the farmers small grain truck with seed wheat...no mean task with the cart and the wind...made lining up to hit the box a challenge.

It seemed like the field would never end, but as the sun was setting the end was in site and by 9:30 we had finished the 100 acres that remained. Al brought the loaded General into Cherokee to dump, the lineup was pretty long but since the elevator is only 1/2 block from the camper he decided to wait it out.

Tomorrow we move back to Cherokee...
