Outside

The last few weeks have been in preparation; first for graduation and now for harvest. The prospect of having visitors at the house made me get my french doors painted. I used a Sherwin Williams paint called Stolen Kiss....love the color, but hated the humiditiy when trying to paint. This is the final outcome. AND...if you see a thin spot...keep it to yourself. I've been promised that the metal chairs will be painted too...sometime.
This is the view of #1--my slow-starting garden and #2--wheat trucks getting worked on.
The garden is about where my old kitchen use to be in the old house. Oh, BTW..I went and visited my old house. That'll be another post someday.

Does anybody else have a 4440 JD tractor in their backyard? Since the yard was going to be tilled up, Troy and I moved all of the playground equipment out. It probably won't get done until this fall. But, if I keep pushing it'll get done eventually...maybe.

This is MY combine being worked on. They're leaving the door opened on it to air out---yep, mice can leave a horrible smell behind. Hope it's gone by the time I get to the field with the combine. You can see the other combine inside the shop building. It's ready to go to the field as soon as the wheat is ready.

I call the tractors Ugly Betty #1 and #2. They're ready to work ground as soon as the wheat is cut. THankfully, they're not waiting on me to drive them!

Another view of the combine. Am so glad that my JDeere mechanic is able to work on these things.

Harvest should begin in the next day or two. I'll be working half-days so I can run the combine...thank goodness for air conditioning!

I'll accept donations for my diesel bill.
