Wheat Update
The wheat is growing and really greening up since it has been fertilized. We also have most of it sprayed. We were looking forward to saving a little money by using our new highboy to fertilize our wheat, but it just wouldn’t stop raining! We hired an airplane to do it instead. We got a lot of our wheat sprayed, but some was still to wet, so we will be calling the crop duster, again!
All the kids had to take a ride in the “new to us” highboy on it’s first run Friday.
We also had a picnic in the field with daddy and took a moment for a few pictures in the wheat.
Saturday was more spraying, and disking. It finally got dry enough to to do a little field work, and last night we got another down pour. Fortunately, with these longer, warmer, windier days, things dry up a little faster. But until then, shop work…there is always shop work!
This is my favourite picture!
