Megan Bertsch – Jr’s Harvesting Inc.
As I sit at the field with all the men and listen to the combines roar and the birds chirp, I thank God for all he has blessed Monte and I with. With this year being an eye-opener year of what it can be like on harvest, I definitely count my blessings throughout the day.
We are currently in Colorado. The wheat is not doing too bad. Storms have been staying away. We ran into some green wheat so we had a few days off but those few days were maintenance days.
Hope everyone is hanging in there. One foot in front of the other with a smile and a positive attitude is all we harvesters can do with all the drought northward. Prayers are made everyday. Safe harvest to all!!!!
Definition of a HarvestHER - a strong woman willing to do whatever it takes to get the harvest in. She must have these qualities:
1. Be ready to go at the drop of a hat...sometimes without a lunchbox.
2. Has removed the word impossible from her vocabulary!
3. Can hold a baby, take care of a toddler and drive a tractor or combine all at the same time.
4. Must be able to cook for a crew - large or small.
5. Must be able to read minds.
6. Must be able to banter with a parts man until he realizes you DO know what you're talking about.
7. Must be the entertainment director for those rainy days.
8. Be a wife, mom, friend, helper, cook, problem solver, taxi driver or extra crew hand at all times.
9. Can handle the call that makes you react, "You need what? When?" Dropping everything you're doing to make it happen.
10. At the end of the day say, "I really do love this life".
