It's August already

Well, here we are. It's August and the machines are ready for action. Are we? I am realistic about energy levels and the unpredicability or weather ahead of us, but also excited to see the wheels in motion as we head into the fields. God has always provided us with what we need and I'm sure He has his eye on us this harvest, too. Along with the sparrows :-) It is an interesting year. We have Canola in two stages. Some had been hit by frost and survived, while Stan reseeded some parts of the fields that weren't coming back! We have Duram that was touched by drought, some rallied after rain and some stayed shorter and affected. Then we have chickpeas. As long as they get water, they keep green and growing. They really need to shut down and ripen before the frost comes knocking and locks in the green color. See what I mean about intersting?? Hmmm All in all, I'm still excited to get back out to the combine as that is one of my favorite things to do. We'll keep you posted.
