Harvest

The farmers are out with their big equipment.  It has been a good year for them.  We had lots of moisture from a snowy winter, then a wet spring and July.  After that the sun came out and continued to shine.

Here is our neighbour out on his field.  The chaff last evening was blown everywhere and all things were covered in dust.  We became extremely itchy and had a hard time breathing.

The wind was blowing from the east today and this is the road in front of my parking space.

Eat Dust
Two John Deere combines just passed by.  I am happy for the farmers.  They should have a bumper crop this year.  I know they will be working around the clock on these fine days and nights. 

The growing season went by way too fast this year!  All too soon the frost will be upon us. 

At the end of October I am leaving for Guatemala.  A new adventure will begin!
