September 20, 2012

View of the day-Al gets the show on the road and has the General filled by the time Marilyn gets to the field.

We got the word from on high that we were clear to do some cutting, so Al was the first one out to the field to get some servicing done before cranking up the combine.

Marilyn got lunches ready, then went out to take over from Al and didn't get out of the combine until there had been 100 acres covered.  Al was kept busy hauling...9 loads...good thing we are only a couple miles from the elevator because with the wheat running over 65 bu/ac, there could have easily been some waiting.

After shutting down for the night, Al went into Balcarres to fill the slip tank and Marilyn went back to the camper, hoping the furnace would magically be working. Nope.

And it is supposed to be well below freezing tonight...
