Together we went out to check the last field of pinto beans…are they ready to be pulled, is the dew just right, is it time?
We decided it was time.
Finished! All the pinto beans are pulled!
If the weather holds we will be combining the first two fields come Thursday!
This last field must have two weeks to dry.
Hopefully the rains stay away! Just for spell…just until the last load of pinto beans is at the Beanery! Hopefully!

How nerve wracking. Here they dry the soy beans standing up in the field. They won’t be combining for ages. Pinto beans are bigger I suppose and need to be helped along.

Well, just different. Soy beans can be combined standing; not so for pintos. 🙂

Couldn’t remember the difference between pulling and combining so found some good videos and then a 2012 post from your blog turned up :-).
