September 27, 2014

View of the day-This is what happens when the track takes a turn for the worse. It flipped and took out the side panel and put a healthy dent in the platform.

We had a couple of good 115 acre days of combining. That meant early mornings, late nights and no blog.

We finished up with all the canola we had been penciled in for...Friday was the last day we could work, since Carlyle was looking for us. We had been here almost a month...it was time to move on.

We were only 35 miles from Carlyle, so we decided to just drive the combine down. Al was a bit concerned on how the hauling would go on the combine trailer, now that we had the dual tires on, so he got to spend a couple hours moving it down the highway.

Marilyn moved the camper and had it all set up by the time Al showed up with the combine. We swapped out headers, had a quick lunch, then got right into combining again.

We were straight cutting canola and it was actually going pretty good until it started raining...not alot, but enough to shut us down for the night.

Besides, Al had filled the bin...
