It's Underway

Hard to believe if I didn't see it with my own eyes, but harvest 2010 is underway. I think that this must be another record for this farm. Only July 21, and the first grain of the season is coming off the field and into the bin. The winter wheat that was seeded back in September of last year is ready for harvest, and though it is not totally dry, with the forcast for rain, it is coming off. Good thing we have bins with aeration. Swathing the first 30 acres on Monday.

OFF!!!!!

And with that come some normal harvest duties for me as well, I'll likely make my first field supper, and I get to test the grain samples, with our new tester that is sharing space with my washer and dryer. Some things still stay the same.
