Harves 2009 is in full swing at the Steffan Farm!!! First and foremost, I have this pic to tell you about! Our nephew Nathan who is 11, got to drive the grain cart while Jeff took a weekend to spend with his boys over Labor Day weekend. Here he is unloading on the go and doing a WONDERFUL job with timing, spacing, etc. He was out there from 10 in the morning until about 7pm so he put in a full day of driving! Labor Day was definitely one to remember! The weather was GORGEOUS--a terrific day to combine. The weather was about to change so the guys decided that they would probably be out until 3 or 4 am. They ended up going until 7am Tuesday morning when it started raining! This is a picture of the double swaths of wheat. I thought it was a neat view. I think some of these random photos capture the beauty of harvest. I love this time of year! It cools off quickly in the evening, and the grain dust hangs in the air and smells soo good! I love that it is starting to get dark earlier in the evenings and Friday nights mean football!! Happy Fall everyone!!!

I love these pics & it makes me homesick for harvest. I love the picture of your nephew. I remember driving big equipment at that age. I'd be terrified if AJ was driving a tractor & he's 13. Living in town is so different than the farm - some good, some bad.
