Every day is one day closer to the end. And how does this make me feel? It’s complicated. The weather has been wonderful for this last stretch!

Just picking corn. And loving this new corn head! I think it might just change my mental outlook on this crop. The weather continues to mess with us. Typical.

Today is the first day of corn harvest. And it includes a brand new MacDon Corn Head. My hope is that at the end of the day, I’ll have a better outlook on this job! Mark came to the field to help set the header and make sure all the options were in place. Always fun to have him in the cab with me!

FINALLY seeing the end of bean harvest for me. Jim, on the other hand, still has quite a few days. It’s been a struggle to stay in the field long enough to get very much done. We had a top 10 day for Eastern Nebraska to finish with. It was lovely! (I only wish it would stay like this all winter!)

The mornings have been cool and wet - due to the dew 🤣. Therefore, later starts than what most want. And once the sun goes down, that dampness returns quite quickly! The days are pretty darn short for bean harvest. And now there is rain on the horizon. Beans are dry, dry. So all of this adds another level of stress on the farmer that isn’t needed this time of year. What do I think of my Brunt boots? Love em!

Seems the end continues to come shortly after the beginning these days. One day, soon, I’m going to guess we’ll get a full day in. I had riders yesterday (Oct 7). My brother and nephew were able to jump in for a bit. They are on their way back home to Florida. Glad they could come hang out in the beans with me for a little while! The day ended with a bad sensor on the spreader and Lee and Angie making a trip to North Bend for a new one.

October 3 began in the field knowing it might rain later that evening. It didn’t wait that long. We received just enough to make us quit. And then we had more in the evening. October 4 was considered a “no-field-work” day due to the rains. Jim was asked if he’d be interested in making a trip to Sioux Center, IA to retrieve a piece of equipment. I rode along.

Nothing like beginning a brand new harvest season with a pair of brand new boots! Thank you, Brunt Boots! It was awfully keen of you to think of us and our need to try out your brand. To view more of what these are about (and to see what other great items they sell), visit their website at https://www.bruntworkwear.com! Well…it’s begun! Day one of the 2023 Nebraska fall harvest. Unfortunately, Jim and I don’t see much of each other this time of year. But we do get to compare notes at the end of the day. Sometimes as we’re both falling asleep at night. First day begins with getting some adjustments made to the MacDon. Once that’s complete, it’s a full day of eating soybeans.

A quick view of the corn harvest

The final night was spent in our home on wheels. The last turn was made for our 2023 wheat harvest adventure. Harvest routine clashes with home routine until the transition is made. Until then, it feels disorganized and messy. It will take a couple of days and soon all of the past weeks will feel like they never happened. Thank goodness for memories…and videos! Jim is back in the combine picking high-moisture corn. And so it begins. THANK YOU so very much to being a part Of Our journey!! See you again very soon.

This time of year has always been difficult for me. Time to exchange “harvest time” with the normal routine once again. I guess I just like the idea of not having a schedule. Is that bad? We left Jordan sorta late the first day. And then we stopped earlier than usual on the 2nd day. So, the typical hard push didn’t happen. But the heat is on for the weekend and traveling during the hot spells are always a little stressful. But…at least we have less tires on the road than ever before!

Tom stopped by the trailer for coffee. He’s done that quite often over the past 40+ years of coming to Jordan for the wheat harvest. He told us he was going out to the “rock farm” to check his 50 snare traps. He was in hopes of finding the coyote that had killed several of his sheep. And we were invited to ride along. As you’ll see, he caught one…hoping it was the one he was after. We had lunch at the Hell Creek bar before heading west on an afternoon tour to the Missouri Breaks.

We’ve pulled into our favorite Montana town for a few days. No set agenda - just to take time to see the people who mean the world to us. First day here, we jumped in and helped Terry by taking his truck to the field so he could take his wife to an appointment. Recognize the trailer?

Today was the day. I couldn’t stretch it out any longer. We said our final goodbyes to our Highwood family to begin our final stretch leading back home. Jim decided it would be best to ride the motorcycle off the “bench” to avoid the coating of dirt it got on the way in. 😉 We loaded it in Belt and made our way towards Jordan.

The morning began with an airplane ride from Ft. Benton to areas that we had cut grain over the past month. Puts things into a whole different perspective!

Our 2nd day of our “raincation” takes us to Havre. We needed a few things from Walmart and decided to take in some of the local sights. We visited the WAHKPA CHU’GN BUFFALO JUMP, the H Earl Clack Museum, ordered pizzas from Nalivka’s and took them to the park, walked through the North 40 store, checked out a pawn shop and hit McDonald’s on our way out of town. It was a good day.

Day 5 - an all-day rain event SO… 1998 - hired man was Charlie Wilson The year begins in Burkburnett, TX. I remember it being hot and miserable. We even tried frying an egg on the cement. Pond Creek, Oklahoma. I took the girls to the Salt Plains to dig crystals. Horribly hot that day. To the point of making Jenna sick. What was I thinking? And then the big storm the night before we were to head further north. Mark lost his trailer house. It could have been so much worse! The year ends in Jordan, Montana.

Jim made a trip to Conrad after parts as we headed to the field. A combine was needing a part replaced and picked up from the JD dealership. The rest of us went back to doing what we were here to do. Cut wheat…and a few weeds. We made a couple easy moves, with the last one of the day being our best.

We moved to a couple different fields today - taking us further north. We found a clean field and a not-so-clean one. Weeds really hate going through the belly of a combine!!

We said our first goodbye’s (we’ll be back to get our camper when this job is over) and headed north. Got our bags taken to our sleeping quarters and headed to the field. We jumped in just as they were beginning a field that averaged 80 bpa. And they weren’t expecting it. It was pretty crazy for a while! We were thrown right back Into the mode Of harvest!

The last pass of the 2023 harvest was made about mid-day. And now the big clean-up begins. The experience we had with this amazing family and their harvest was just the answer my non-harvesting soul needed. The end of harvest is exciting. And a letdown. The intense days are hard at the time but greatly missed when it’s over. Everyone working together towards the end goal is worth all the crazy which harvest provides. I mentioned Katie’s YouTube channel. Here’s the scoop: https://youtube.com/@montanafarmlife3000 Many thanks to Katie and Nick for providing me with drone footage and pictures! ❤️ What an AMAZING time we’ve had here!! What’s next?
