View of the day-Another early start, with only one green one missing.

Al got to start combining, since the trucking was under control and Marilyn had to get lunches ready. All machines were running right off the bat, but the green ones had issues during the day as they always seemed to have one down with belt issues.

We finished the field we had started, then moved about 10 miles or so, SE to a five quarter chunk of canola.  This field was a far cry from the slough-filled one we had just left...mile long straight swaths. At least some of them were that long...there was a creek that split it up in a few places.

Marilyn had a jogging buddy as this little bunny would not leave the side of the swath. there was a hawk that was eye-balling it up and Marilyn had the camera ready in case it decided to try and lift the little bugger, who was actually about the same size as the hawk. It never happened.

As darkness fell, the beaver houses seemed to get bigger...and tougher. We went until about 9:30, then everyone quit for the night.

More of the same tomorrow and maybe we finish this big chunk...
