Warning to all those around farmers during this harvest: - We often forget what day it is as the list of things to do in our head often takes precedent over normal thinking - We might be crabby or overly giddy depending on how the crop is yielding that day - If a combine suddenly stops in the field we may stare at it begrudgingly while swearing under our breath till it moves again - You can tell how our day is going by how oily and dirty our clothes are - All types of grain may randomly fall out of our pockets and pant cuffs as we walk by - The “harvest hat” may get hard to look at by the end but no worries, it will share the same fate as the last few bushels of grain through the combine! And finally we all know that some days will be held together by #9 wire and binder twine so please bear with us as we may smile uncontrollably in those fleeting moments when it’s all going smoothly… #HappyHarvest #Harvest26 – at Trochu, Alberta
