Yesterday, Marilyn drove down to Carlyle to hitch a ride with her sister to Moose Jaw to have a birthday lunch with their mother, who was celebrating her 86th birthday.
Al was left to do the combining, but due to a truck shortage, our combine sat while he hauled grain away from the other combine. Once their truck was back from hauling canola to the elevator, Al was able to start combining again.
Today, we had an early start and perfect weather. Sunny, hot and windy. Al started out while Marilyn ran into Kipling to do a few errands. She took over combining as soon as she got back and that is where she stayed for the day.
We finished the quarter section we were on and moved four miles SE to the next field. We went until the trucks were filled for the last time, then called it a night. The other combine had straight header issues, so he left it in the field and went back to get the pickup head on and do some of the canola that was in swaths.
More beautiful weather in the forcast for tomorrow...
