It was nice to catch up and have lunch with fellow harvest friends.
More rain last night and today. Since no one in our area was able to cut, we decided to meet up with some of our harvester friends & fellow HarvestHER – Nancy Eberts of Eberts Harvesting Inc.!
After lunch, I stopped at the most awesome little store in Frederick, OK. In its former life, it was a Case IH dealership. But, now it’s been transformed into the coolest home store. In addition to home stuff, they sell boots and still have a parts counter. I’m telling you, if all JD’s had this kind of store, I would gladly make all our parts runs!
Quite possibly the best home goods/parts store there is!
If you haven’t tried this stuff, you really should. Support your local FFA!
We ran some errands and found my very favorite Blue & Gold sausage! Seriously, if you haven’t tried this stuff, you need to. (Contact your local FFA chapter to see about getting some!)
Back at the camper, I finished up payroll for the guys and tied up a few loose ends.
Even though today was a great day visiting and shopping, I am more than ready to get back in the field and be busy. Hoping it’ll start to dry up after tomorrow!
(FYI…today is also Amanda’s birthday. 🎉🎉)
