Lots going on around here this week. We planted sweet corn, brown and golden flax and started our soybeans. We were shut down for a day or 2 due to rain, but for the most part it was a smooth sailing week!
The boys played with their niece on the ‘sand hill’ in the afternoon. Mollie-Jayne was not thrilled with the sand. She cried most of the time she was touching it.
These 2 make me laugh. Sven (left) & Ricardo (right) were vacuuming out the drill. We were switching from brown flax to golden flax so everything had to be super clean. They thought it was so funny I was taking their picture. Sven is here from South Africa and Ricardo is from Brazil. They will be with us until November.
Break downs are normal on a farm. Today it was the rock picker. Mick was welding the piece that holds the axle on.
We went to Hannah to mow the yard where the guys will be staying. This was the sunset as we finished.
We planted lots of sweet corn – 3 varieties! The guys are checking for proper spacing and depth. A few adjustments were made and many rows were planted!
We had a beautiful night for supper in the field. Brett was having so much fun kicking up dust with no shoes.
A local bar and grill started serving food again! I picked up Indian tacos for supper, they are bread dough disks fried with taco fixings on top. They did a great job for their first night serving food! Ricardo had a good seat in the tire. It was pretty windy that night.
