Fall Harvesting

The weather has been much more normal lately. The corn is coming out of the fields everywhere in this country. We probably have a week or so left to finish harvest. Things are slowed even more by waiting for dryer bin fuel, waiting for the corn to dry in the bins, bin and combine breakdowns, lack of storage space, and waiting hours in line at the elevators. Overall, we are grateful to have a crop when we so easily could have lost it. (Pix by L.)

Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee;
Surely his goodness and mercy here daily attend thee.
Ponder anew what the Almighty can do,
If with his love he befriend thee. (Hymn from Psalm 103, 150)

Gratefulness is to see what you do have instead of what you do not have.-JGS
