View of the day-Working with some yellow ones.

Yesterday we waited for the call to combine, but since there was rain the night before, the only call we got was to stay home. We had a bunch of stuff to do, so it worked out fine for us.

This morning, we got the word that we would start around 11, so we grabbed what we needed, then headed up with both pickups. Once Al had the combine set, we got moved to the field, then Marilyn went back to Yorkton to do another three hour painting. A sunset beach scene.

Al had lost the thermostat in the combine, so it was a bit cool...he actually had to wear his jacket and those who know him, know that is rare. After Marilyn finished her class, she went out to get the new thermostat from Rocky Mtn Equip, then headed out to the field...after a short stop back at the camper to turn on the water heater. That would have made for an even colder night for Al.

We combined until around 9:30 then everyone shut down. A green combine had been added to the mix during the day, so there are a few acres being covered now. 

And the rain stayed away...
