September 13, 2009


View of the day-Some do straight cutting a bit differently. The swather cuts ahead of the pull type combine with the pickup head on it...there was an older New Holland combine working with these two.

Ahhh...communication...the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by speech, signals, writing, or behavior...sounds simple, doesn't it? Without being a mind reader, there is no way of knowing the way you have successfully done things for the past 17 years just doesn't cut the mustard...or the wheat in some cases. C'est la vie...

We moved our rigs back to Kim and Marg's to start in on their canola. They had extra truck drivers so Marilyn had the afternoon off...sort of. Marg is getting a deck put on the house this week and the camper was parked very close to the construction site so Marilyn had to move it to a different spot behind the house. After closing up the slides and getting everything battened down for the short trip, we got lined up in a nice spot...we even get sewer service at the new site...bonus.

Al was pretty happy to get a day full of football on the radio and TV...his Seahawk killed, the Riders won the second game of the "Banjo Bowl"...very satisfying all around.

After getting the camper put back together, it was close to supper time so Marilyn ordered pizza for the crew...a large deluxe and an extra large meat lovers. Marg had gone to the casino for some 'relaxation' and came home with winnings in the high triple digits, so she offered to buy with her winnings. Marilyn was at the restaurant waiting for the pizza already, so when Marg showed up they went inside to pick up the pizzas...$77!!! For two pizzas?! We asked if that was right and the young girl gave us a bunch of jibber jabber..."the large is this much and the extra large is this much, then we add on $15 to the extra large..." WTF? Marg will be inquiring to management tomorrow...more at 11.

We had a lovely supper just the same, with the rest of the crew...
