View of the day-The last load of wheat goes onto the pile...right on schedule.

We got to the field early, serviced everything then did a bit of rearranging as we moved to a different part of the field. We had to use the combine to mow some stubble to the ground to make place for the pile of wheat we would be creating throughout the day.

Al was kept busy shuttling between the north end of the field and the pile, which was on the south end. We eventually ended up a bit closer to the pile by the time we were finished at 7:35pm...5 minutes after Al had predicted we would be done.

The day was windy and cloudy off and on and as we drove the combine back to the pile after we had finished, it started to sprinkle a bit, but it never amounted to much and it didn't affect dumping the last load of wheat onto the pile. We went back to the camper and had a visit with the landlord before calling it a day.

Tomorrow we move to a new field...if it doesn't rain as forecasted...
