View of the day-The view from Al's seat.

Early morning for Al today. A trip to Windthorst to get some disappearing fingers for the pickup head auger, then back to install them. Not all of them, though. A couple of the holes in the almost brand new auger were hammered up pretty bad from the "log" incident. There were enough in the auger to pull in the canola swaths, so now we have a couple extra backups.

We had been in a weather warning all afternoon and we could see the fluffs of clouds slowly building in the east. They eventually turned into large thunder heads, but stayed in the east, for our viewing pleasure. It's been a while since we had any bad weather and it was nice to see it pass us by...not so nice for the areas getting hit by it.

The drone came out for a short flight today. The wind has been really strong for the last couple of weeks, so it has been grounded. The wind was still pretty brisk, so it was a quick trip up, around and down.

Long day and more canola tomorrow...
