View of the day-The combine sat by the bins for one night and just look what the birds left us. They had even put a layer inside the engine compartment and it was closed.

We got to sleep in for a bit, then, after not being able to get the parts we needed in Yorkton, it was road trip to the Case parts warehouse in Regina.

It was an uneventful trip...a new road for us to travel on...it looked like there had been rain everywhere along the way. We got to Regina just a random cloud was letting loose with a dump of rain. There seemed to be a few of them along the way, but none of them amounted to much.

The parts weren't ready when we got there, so we went to Fastenal to buy a metric bolt that we needed for the sieve adjuster. They wouldn't sell us just one...we had to buy a bag of them, which we would never use, so we went without.

We went back for the combine part, had a quick lunch at Arby's, stopped at Princess Auto...and came out empty handed...then came back to the farm. We stopped at Windthorst to pick up some oil and a filter for the combine, which we had drained yesterday. 

Back at the farm, we got the oil changed, then put the parts on the combine reverser that we had picked up. Looks good as new.

Marilyn can't wait to plug it up to see if it works...
