Yesterday we got an early start, but it didn't last long as Al picked up some barbed wire in one of the swaths. The wire got wrapped around the front of the rotor, so we had to spend an hour or so getting in through a four inch slot under the feederhouse. Not an easy task, but we eventually got it out.
Marilyn took over combining in the afternoon to give Al some time off. He went back to the camper to watch the Saskatchewan Roughriders win their annual grudge football game with the Winnipeg Bombers.
Today we had an early start again...once all the filters got blown out, that is. Even with all the wind blowing, they get pretty dirty. Once clean, Al was back at it.
Marilyn brought lunch out, then went back to the camper to make the coffee Al ordered with lunch...but she forgot to take. She went back to the camper and Al continued picking up canola.
He continued until just after 10pm when they had filled the trucks and quit for the night. More of the same tomorrow...
