October 20, 2014

View of the day-Getting the bearing pressed onto the shaft of the pulley at Minute Muffler in Yorkton.

We were up and out early to get to town to see if our pulley was in stock at the CaseIH dealer. Lo and behold, it was and we were able to get a replacement bearing, too. Once we had that in hand, we got Danny to press the bearing into the nice shiny pulley and we were on our way out to the field.

The pulley went on without any issues and once we got most of the shields back on the combine, Marilyn was able to do a test run and once that was given the seal of approval, the last shield went on and we were away. And only 45 minutes behind our usual start time.

We got the field we were on finished and moved a mile down the road to start on the full section that was left. More sloughs and short swaths...which Marilyn was getting used to, but still not liking. We got as much done as we could before the sun disappeared, then called it a night...no sense getting stuck.

Another beautiful day, with more of the same for tomorrow...
