It was Staples working weekend, hence the break in the blog. Al held down the fort for the weekend and had it pretty slack. There were enough sprinkles to put the brakes on combining and when it wasn't raining, the dew held things up.
The green ones are having a time of it with breakdowns, which has to be frustrating for them. A chopper, then some bearings and a few other assorted issues. At least they don't go down together...very often.
Today combining started around 10:30am...no thanks to the dew...it was slow going until late in the afternoon. This gave the combines some smooth sailing until around 10pm, when the rain started. They kept going until it started to run off the headers, then shut down.
Hopefully it is just a short shot and we won't have to wait too long to start tomorrow...
