July 5


View of the day-Waitning our turn at the hospital.

Cloudy and humid again, but it didn't matter since the combine was in the hospital. We went down in the morning to see what the prognosis was, and they had just taken the feederhouse off and were going to remove the rotor. They called us to come in later on in the afternoon with the final diagnosis, and it was indeed the shaft on the rotor gear box, which would require replacing. Of course, the only gear box in the area was in Salina, so they were going to get it delivered and put everything back together, but...it wouldn't be done until tomorrow afternoon.

A super do nothing day...not that we wouldn't rather have been making dust...
