Are we having fun yet! Harvest Update.

[Busted]

6tenths of an inch so far at 10 AM near Edmonton. Got some crop in since starting on Saturday but heavy dew meant late starts. We're screwed now for at least 3-4 days assuming really good weather going forward.Picked some swathed peas late last night, had been caught by rain 20 days ago. Juicy. Like peeling off a scab to see whats underneath. Hope someone can use sprouted, tagged, damp peas.

Started combining peas flat on ground, not sure moisture yet, some maybe 24 some may be 10 in hopper.
Did that cart come out yet?

Just start that CAT and pull, doesn't even look like you
spun a track. Those axles on that J&M are 6", if it don't
come, unload and pull some more. Also you should
keep those front weights on all the time, just adjust
ballast with saddles and idler weights.

Half an inch at Lacombe today. We were combining standing soft wheat yesterday and only got down to nineteen late last night. Had tenth on Sunday just as crop got dry. In our area anyone without a grain dryer has not yet started. Ground is wet and have been stuck a few times but is manageable. Not likely to resume harvest till Friday unless we want to harvest mid twenty moisture.

finished the peas late PM just before a shower passed through. Going to help the daughter and son in law with irrigated canola and then try the lentils.Neighbour went by with his Versatile 4 wheeler so someting must be in a rut... Guys around here have given up on lentils and are working on canola and the odd one trying wheat.

Rained us out late last night. Spit all way back to city. YEA.
Oh well today I can put the dual kit on our gator.

Started spitting here last night too. Will be back out to finish in a couple hours.

Few pics.

Ya, I am by Edgeley. For some reason the picture did not come through showing our grain cart stuck with the on wheel out of sight.
Probably have 20 days to go. We are very wet but maybe not as bad as you. For the last few days we have had combines stuck on ave 5 times/day. The grain cart guy is gettting good at rolling and unrolling tow straps!
I am hopping things will improve from now on.

Am one of the lucky ones, I guess. Combined 100 acres of canola to day without getting stuck. Can't wait to get back to the other wet field tomorrow.
Still have my sense of humor sort of!! LOL good luck everyone and STAY SAFE!!!!!!!!!

My combine with the flex header looked very much like the grain cart the other day. Trackhoe and lots of luck and nothing was wrecked, so I guess I should be very grateful to the combine gods who are taking care of me sort of.
