Harvest was unusual this year and although the equipment has been washed, repaired and tucked in for winter, it's taken awhile to post pictures.
The Mr. started early--so early it was still a little green--just to make sure all systems were "go."

It was good we started early because of hitches in the get along. After making repairs and waiting for the grain to dry, we moved from one field to another.
We had worked together for a few days when The Mr. made a phone call and hired a new driver, creating some angst for the Mrs. "What did I do wrong?"
"If you're out here, who's taking care of everything else?" The Mr. asked. Matthew drove home from school twice a week to help. Larry, the new driver--both retired and expert--came faithfully through the end. And our new friend, Whit, came out on evenings and weekends. It was a long, productive harvest--all tucked in and making its way to nearby elevators.
Meanwhile, at home, the new scaredy chickens roosted in the trees on the porch.
(Tree Before--thank you, chickens!)
(Tree After--thank you, Matthew, forestry-student!)
And we enjoyed another marching band season, "Go, Rachael!"
Actually, in looking back, so many things happened this Fall, it's no wonder we're late!
Below are just a few of those things. Thanks for stopping by.
