I rode on the combine this morning...It was fun!










Its a bumper crop of wheat this year...unlike two years ago, it was a crop failure...yes, all due to weather...the dryland farmers that depend mostly upon the weather and some good-luck, well, this year, they are quite excited with the beautiful crop that is being harvested as I type.  It was fun to ride along for a couple hours this morning and snap away with my camera and to hear Tom comment at how nice the stand of wheat is...with hardly a weed in sight and my oh my, if you think Tom is excited, you should hear the FARMERS :)!!! Daniel said their "farmer talk" was speak he couldn't even understand!

Like all your pictures & postings, Pam! You could come drive a John Deere tractor and help with our hay, if you'd like!!! Our hay is down and "tedded" so we will really begin in earnest in putting up the hay today!! Lot of late nights until we get it in the barn! Of course, the weather for every day this week is thunder/lightning/spots of rain!!!
