hello everybody, long time no news hey. well harvest is harvest as you can imagine, except when you have 5000 acres to do it doesnt really stop. we have been going on and of for over a month now with the last 2 or 3 weeks being the busiest. we have about 1500 acres to go, of canary, canola and flax. we have been real lucky in this part of canada cause only a couple of hours north has been having heaps of rain and not much harvesting has been done and now all the crops are downgraded and have started sprouting, not good. Here i have been still doing the odd bit of spraying, and apart from fixing the old 8820 i have been driving it a bit and have also done quite a few stints in the new combine. so quiet and smooth after driving the old girl. the weather here has cooled down a lot, we had a light frost this morning, yes frost and it is still summer here yet! with any luck the weather will stay fine and warm up a bit and we will finish harvest in a week or so and i can see some more of the country before i head home. not long now ! sorry no picture this time, i havent taken many exciting one of late. godspeed daniel
