View of the day-When we left the field last night there was a nice line up, but this morning we showed up and someone had rearranged the rigs.We had rain during the night, complete with lightning and thunder...it sounded like a lot of rain fell at the camper, but at the field, it didn't even settle the dust in the rain gauge.
We got out to the field early, but everyone was moving equipment or getting set up at other fields, so we went into Balcarres and took an early lunch.
After lunch, we got started combining and it was slow going for quite a while...especially where the wheat was laying down and lodged. We also did a lot of moving but fortunately it was only 1/4 mile here or there and we could move with the headers on. Al was hauling to the elevator so he was kept hopping from one truck to the other and with the exception of a couple of minor breakdowns, it was a productive day.
Did we mention we finished the barley? Al is pretty thrilled about that...
