Combining Corn.

Hi all,
First, I would like to tell all of my readers that I am now fifteen! Anyway, to the news of today. Andrew and I worked all morning on getting the combine ready to go, and getting a moisture test on some corn. Seeing as the corn was dry enough, Andrew started combining, and I came back to do my school.

As Andrew worked further into the field, he noticed that the corn seemed to be getting wetter. We took anther moisture sample, and this time it was almost too wet, so he went to the other side of the field. This side was planted a week earlier, and then he was good to go.

And then Dad came home, so Andrew made another round, and then Dad came out and took over so that Andrew and I could work on putting up an electric fence around the field, so that we could graze the cows later. It is getting to be chores time here, so I had better go.
