September 23, 2011

View of the day-There’s a new kid in town…and it had to go to work pulling a combine that had slid off the road. Sorry, no pictures of that one…it was the neighbor.

We were up early and combining by 10:30am and never stopped until almost midnight. A very productive day in some heavy canola and after sunset the going got slow as the wheels on the pickup heads were shiny with moisture…the humidity had shot up and was making the big swaths tough to chew through.

Al was kept busy hauling the grain away from the three combines in the field, he had help from Lindsey, who works on the weekends and Blaine in the tractor and cart. A late night and early morning makes for a short entry...but a gorgeous sunset.


Tomorrow the straight header goes on and we start in the wheat…
