Beautiful Harvest Weather
« on: October 10, 2020, 08:28:58 pm »
It’s October, but we’ve had a week straight in the mid 60’s to low 70’s even hit low 80’s yesterday! Took the kids out to ride around with my dad today






Too focused on the cob in his hand to look at the camera  :D







My Grandpa helps a friend and his wife shared this picture of him on facebook yesterday “You know it’s a good day harvesting when the help comes in shorts!”  :D

Looks like a good day, & A fun day for the boys , I remember riding on the axle of my Grandpa's Case SC tractor when I was a youngster , with my older brother at the wheel , I wasn't supposed to...but in the field behind the woods Grandma couldn't see us & I would get away with it.

I spent many hours riding on the axle of my Grandpa’s Oliver hanging onto the fender. They make it a little easier now with an extra seat and seatbelt next to the driver seat. I also remember having to sit on the armrest or on the floor of my grandpas combine, banging my head into the window on any bumps. :D

Nice pics Nick, been nice here also, got another ten trees in sawed up and split must have 12 full cords up.
Invented a good way to saw blocks, put the bucket down on end of tree and chained it the could lift entire tree at waist height and saw away.  :)
