Yesterday we serviced the combine, switched out the Nav controller from the farmers combine into ours to see if there was any difference. None. Kind of a good news/bad news thing...good that it wasn't the controller/bad because we don't know what else it could be. We were back at the camper by 5pm and that was the end of the day.
Today we were back combining in the barley and looking forward to the eclipse. We knew we weren't in for totality, but we had hoped it would dim a little bit at least. Didn't see much change at all.
We continued on with no incidents, just had to break once to change a few knife sections and a guard on the header, but it was otherwise uneventful. With four machines running there were a lot of acres covered.
Marilyn had to take a break in the evening to attend a theatre meeting via phone. She finished the first meeting just as Al was quitting for the day and parking the combine. The "post meeting" meeting took a little longer.
We are finished with the barley, so tomorrow the combine will come back to the yard to wait for the oats this weekend.
Maybe we will get that autosteer working yet...
