We started the pinto bean harvest –which reminds me, Terry raises Bill Zee pinto beans.  Pinto beans have many different types of beans just like apples have different varieties.

Everything was going really good

Until around Three in the afternoon

When the auger broke.  A belt.

The hopper had to be unloaded by hand.

This is the sunshine on Grand Mesa

What a day..

That evening I went up to fork the ends on the hay and to fluff the rows. (While Terry changed the water).

I must say I enjoyed myself  very much, I even saw a tiny (almost) rainbow.

The hay is ready to bale.  I’m not sure if Terry will bale today or tomorrow morning, but he will have to soon.  Plus keep on combining.

Lots of work hitting us right now, but when we are done we can take a break until the corn is ready.

Exhausted but happy,

Linda
