September 27, 2008


View of the day-More colors changing in the valley...not for long with the frost last night and the gusty winds today.

Same day as yesterday as far as most of the day went. Unloading, servicing and combining...the usual. Al had to strategically time his unloading so that he would be able to leave Marilyn combining with an empty truck and cart while he went to Yorkton for the Terriers hockey game...his first of the season.

Al left around 6:30pm and Marilyn carried on combining but came up short of the 100 acre goal, due to the fact that there wasn't any room to put anymore grain. In fact, the General was heaped so full that she had to get the 'box stretcher' out to get the tarp closed. After sitting in the combine for 11 hours, getting up into the box to rearrange the canola was a bit of a shock to the system...time to get back into shape.

Tomorrow Marilyn is on a road trip to Moose Jaw and Al works on his own...
