It's been a busy week on the farm. For some reason my dad thought it would be an excellent idea to time baling hay with simultaneous grain harvest.
This is the first year in many that he's had grain and that meant he was in need of a combine. He purchased this John Deere earlier in the spring and it has required many hours, a hefty parts bill, and a lot of encouraging words to get it working.
Sprout decided that she wanted to go for a ride in the combine. I remember when I was little how much fun it was to sit and ride. I don't really know what the novelty is, but trust me, for some reason it's a good time.
I thought that she would be done and ready to go after a couple of passes through the field. Not the case. She spent an hour riding and would have kept going, but we needed to get home.
