August 19, 2009


View of the day-The combine and cart sit waiting after the sky clears off from the rain...again.

Al was up early to go see how our farmer was making out with the swathing...they hadn't started due to the rain, so it looked like it would be a slow day all around.

We had a visit from our Kansas harvester to fill us in on what had been going on the last few days...not much more than rain, rain and more rain, and while he was sitting in the camper another round of rain hit. It continued off and on for the better part of the day although we seemed to be lucky enough to have the worst of it split around us.

It was another super-do-nothing day, Al did venture out a couple of times, but Marilyn stayed in where it was warm until we decided to go for a trip around town before hitting the Firehouse for a late supper. The beer clouds were out because the bar was half full of harvesters...the ones that are left around town, at any rate. Al has been invited to go on a parts road trip to Bismarck with the Kansas harvester which means early to sleep.

The bus leaves at 6am...
