It’s nice to be back in a routine.
I sent lunches with the guys this morning since the field they’re on is an hour away. I took care of some elevator tickets & got dinner together and ready to take to the field. Overall, it was a pretty uneventful day…well, for me anyway.
For the guys, it was a different story. The grain is dry, but the ground is still a bit soft. Hoping a little more sun and wind will take of things. Thankfully the forecast is showing a lot of sun for the next few days. ☀️☀️☀️ #harvest16
Chloe keeps a close eye on the guys as they’re moving things around the yard. She loves to go with them for the day!
Anders talking to Flemming and David about what they’ll be doing today.
The recent rains have wreaked havoc on the roads.
Grain going into the hopper is always a nice sight!
