View of the day-Al's view from the cart mirror.
We were rolling by noon and once again Marilyn hardly got a chance to stop to "powder her nose"...Al kept the combines empty with the cart. We finished the last field around 5:30 and by 6pm we were on the road to the rye field.
The rye field was on the outskirts of town...and right on the main highway so once again the traffic was heavy. Lots of motorcycles heading out to Sturgis for the big rally. Another crew from Saskatchewan pulled into town while we were cutting...the exec-secretary of the Association of Canadian Custom Harvesters. Marilyn had been trying to meet with Lynn all summer but we were always too busy or just too far away, now they will be moving north again tomorrow...only 25 miles so we will be able to meet after all.
Tomorrow is the annual Crazy Day in Gettysburg...sales everywhere, which Marilyn always takes advantage of. The best bargains are early in the morning from 7-9am, so Marilyn will be picking up Lynn at 7am...that's right AM...for coffee and some shopping before they head up the road.
It has to be an early night...
