It's just about wheat harvest time in Kansas

[Black Pearl's Captain]

I snapped this picture last Sunday on a short ride. Any day now and the combines will be rolling in the Kansas fields.

I've had the ST 25 days and it just rolled over 2,000 miles. I wish it was 12,000 but such is life.. I sure hope my Valkyrie doesn't start rusting while the new gets rode off the ST.

I was in Colby, KS several years back during the harvest..... it's almost like an event. The grocery store had a sloppy joe sandwich special 10 for $1.00... the line was a mile long.

We won't start our wheat till early to mid July here in Ind. We got hay that needs bailed but when it rains every other day it gets kinda hard to.

When I was growing up in mid-west Kansas, my father was self employed.
He had 3 businesses:
1. Custom combiner during harvest.
2. Water well drilling when harvest was over.
3. Scrap yard to fill in between the other 2 jobs.

Every Summer as soon as school was out, we would load up the trucks and head South to Texas.
Then we would work our way North through OK, KS, NE, SD, ND, and end up in Montana.

I have very fond memories of our time in the North West but didn't care much for the South.

Too hot and too many tornadoes.

I hear ya fudgie, hard to get that hay bailed when it's raining so much.  Have had that problem down here, but not in a while....  been pretty dry.
Hope you can get it bailed in the next week or 2, so it doesn't push back your wheat too far...
