Harvest 2009...

Installing the new down corn reel on the head.

Patience...

Hard to tell where we've harvested...

Fuel needed...

After my last post our area experienced another rain which kept us out of the fields around Ashland until last weekend. Saturday we decided that the Williamsville farm was the driest and we headed up there to begin work on our "tornado" corn. Before we left we installed a new reel on the corn head to help aid with the harvest. This reel proved to be no match for the flat corn...

We harvested in Williamsville on Saturday afternoon through Monday evening. On Tuesday morning the weather was dry and warm enough we decided to move back to Ashland and combine soybeans. We are very close to finishing our 2009 soybean harvest. Although, we had to leave a few patches in fields that are too wet and almost caused the combines to get stuck this week.

On Tuesday afternoon Carl Wester started the chisel plow running again and as I post he is still out working; trying to get as much done as possible before the rains.
