There are so many things I love about fall, and one of them is going on right now: the fall harvest! I should clarify that the men are currently busy with the fall bean harvest, but the fall corn harvest took place a couple of weeks ago. Uncle Ken farms Virginia's ground just to the west of our house, so we were able to watch him harvest the corn from our driveway.
All full, time to dump!
So that was to the west, and now we're looking to the east as the beans are cut. For the first time ever (I think), there was a yellow combine working on Dwyer farms. Grandpa Denny had some bad luck with his newest (and biggest) combine and it needed some repair work, so a Caterpillar Challenger was enlisted to help get the harvest started.
Scott's "new" Case IH joined in and the duo made a great team!
If you look closely, you can see our house and shed to the left in this picture. . .
. . . and this was our view from the deck as they were finishing up the field between us and Scott & Joy.
Happy Harvest to all!
