Wheat Harvest

We finished wheat harvest tonight. We had two beautiful days to work. We had a too warm January, a too cold February, and a too wet March. As a result, the field had thin spots in it that the giant ragweed decided to take advantage of. It was a jungle in places. Some spots we didn't try to harvest, we just mowed it down with our Bush Hog. But it's finished and we had an acceptable yield and the price is great. Now it's time to bale straw. Since tomorrow is Independence Day, we probably won't work a full day. If the Lord and weather willing, we will hit it hard on Thursday.

God Bless America!

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
