August 29, 2018

View of the day-Cutting near the yard is always handy for servicing and fuel.

With all the fog and humidity during the night, we knew it wouldn't be an early start in the oats...but at least there would be a start. The best part was the cloudless sky, brisk wind and warm temperatures helping to dry down the straw.

First call was for noon, but then that got pushed back to 1:30 pm. Al had gone out and done a bit of servicing in the morning, so he was able to rest his eyes for a bit before going out to the field.

Once the combines were rolling, the acres got knocked down, but once again, the straw had to be dropped for baling, so there was to be no unloading on the go. Never the less, they got the oats done before 10 pm.

Spring wheat is up next...
