August 17, 2010 - Happy Birthday Al!


View of the day-The header is cleaned and ready to head north...on Al's birthday...the big 5-0.

We were up early to get the truck unloaded and the header tied down and washed up for the trip across the border.

We left town around 11am and started for Bismarck...or Minot...or Kenmare...we weren't really sure where we were going to leave the header. We passed a lot of fields that were already combined and as we continued on our way they varied...some really close all the way to looking like they had just been seeded a month ago...very strange...but here were combines testing and cutting here and there all the way to Kenmare.

We got to Kenmare and unhooked the header trailer just as it started to sprinkle, so we turned around and started back to Gettysburg. We stopped for fuel in Bismarck and carried on, getting back to the Burg at 12:30am...to being very tired and with no internet service. Good thing they have a 24 hour help desk.

That's why this is short and sweet...
