around here, its all about the beans and the corn...
the shoot for the ground pile...
when you have bumper crops, you have to have ground piles...
because the old elevators just aren't big enough to hold it all...
yields have increased through the years...
auger...
just another day at the office for the folks around here...
beans are done and about 60% of the corn is in...
still got some more to go...
praying for a safe harvest...
DH had the day off...
it spit snow this morning, though I didn't see it personally...
I refused to look...
but we took a drive around noon and grabbed some lunch from Casey's...
came home and played around with the mantle and cleaned a little...
very little...
and that's about it...
hope you had a good day...
;)
I can almost smell the sweet scent of the corn at the mill. I loved it when we would load the barn with fresh cut hay...mmmm.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your Fall mantle, Tete.
Have a wonderful night, dear friend.

I have never lived around harvest country. I know what a big job it is and I also realize that there are some dangers involved.
ReplyDeleteI drove through a few miles of snow today-but it has disappeared. I am NOT ready for it.
Hope we get to see your mantle. xo Diana
Will you show us your mantle?
ReplyDeleteIt is good for the farmers that they have had a good crop.

I know that the beans are about half harvested in the bottoms between us and the river, they were working on them yesterday when we went to town.
ReplyDeleteWe grabbed breakfast at Hardees and then had sandwiches in the afternoon, here.
