“The day” finally arrived – the day Jim and Charlie decided they’d test the wheat’s moisture. That was yesterday.

Welcome Back Home – to Jordan!
We made it to Jordan! The heat is on!!! It was 104 on Tuesday and 102 yesterday. The forecast is more of the same for the next several days.
I figured with the heat, we’d get right back in the field but that’s not what happened. Jim’s anticipating today will be the day. After so much time of being away from the wheat field, trucks and combine, it will be hard to get back into the swing of things. The routine was broken before July 4th.
The trip from Lusk to Jordan was uneventful. It was horribly warm but we were fortunate not to have any truck engine or tire issues. Taylor thought the dually was running a little on the hot side and volunteered to drive without the air conditioning. I’m not sure, but I think she may have broke down and turned it on just outside of Belle Fourche, SD.
The Old Grey Goose Is Dead
(This was written Monday evening after we stopped for the day) Today started out early. I was up at 4:30 for a conference call at 5:00. It’s now 11:04 p.m. In between these two times, we have left Limon, CO and are spending the night in Lusk, WY.
Taylor helping Jim by making sure the Nasty didn’t drag as it was being driven on the trailer.
