View of the day-Same old, same old...

There was a bit of rain during the night but we were lucky enough to be missed by the bad weather that hit various places in the state. The fog and humidity helped to fuel more rain during the morning but by 1pm the sun had started to break through and it ended up being a beautiful afternoon...sunny and a strong north wind.

We went out to the sale barn for lunch...there are still new harvesters pulling into the lot out there. We took a drive out to the campground out by the Hwy 83 junction to visit with the Gallagher's. They were moving equipment up to Sterling, ND so after a short chat we went back to the camper.

Later in the afternoon Al took the shop trailer out to the combine to blow off all the rye chaff while Marilyn made sure the buttons on the remote control didn't seize up for Al.

We read the paper too late today to go see the old time tractor pull at 2pm. This weekend is the 4-H fair and tomorrow we may go check out the bull riding.

Tomorrow we get up early for the harvest appreciation breakfast...
