September 5, 2009


View of the day-Unloading on the go as the sun works it's way down at Menoken...that's right, we got to combine!


High humidity this morning but at least the sun was shining and of course one of the two places in the state that had fog was right here where the combine sits.

We decided to go into town for lunch and had omlettes on the brain so we figured we would check out a place the farmer had told us about in Mandan...we didn't realize how far from town it was...but we got there and got our egg fix in, then made it back to the field to do a test at 1:30pm. It was 15.3% so we went back to the camper to kill a little time before trying it again.

We did a couple more tests before we finally got going and once we did we were able to keep at it until 9pm...Marilyn actually got the use the lights on the combine. We did around 50 acres which should leave about 40 to finish for tomorrow and hopefully we can start a bit earlier and even have time to load some stuff up.

Wouldn't that be something...
