Harvest

It's harvest time.  Of course this year I didn't have any corn or beans so I've been doing harvesting throughout the year.  But now I'm working for other farmers who are harvesting.  Right now I'm doing field work like disking.  While it isn't technically harvesting, it's part of the process of fall farming where fields are prepared for next year.  The other notable thing about disking is that unlike harvesting corn or beans which is usually done with several people and pieces of equipment, disking is a one man job.  Just you, the tractor and disk, and the field.  Plenty of time to think and ponder.
