Finished harvest at 9:56pm on Wednesday, July 1

Matt and Garrett watched as the last grains of wheat ran from the combine to the truck.

These wheat plants were literally the last ones harvested in the 2009 wheat harvest. Mick had the honor of taking the last swath.

Is that Matt or a wax statue? Nancy wanted her photo taken with him.

Susan joined the fun

Garrett then decided to join the fun. This group looks a little haggard, but that is how you generally feel after several days in the harvest field.


This photo was taken the night prior to the last day of harvest. We found shade for the supper area and we just seemed to linger a while in the cool. Jackie Bay sent her famous fried chicken for the main course. If you don't know about Jackie's friend chicken, it is the best. Yes, it beats Brookville and KFC - it's that good! Thanks Jackie.

More lingering: Matt, Lori, Mick, Nancy, Jane and Harvey

Life is good for Hallie in the harvest field. She found the best a way to relax.

Hallie, sweet Hallie

More dinner conversation - Kendall, Joey and Susan

Joey sat on the header trailer that Matt and he built.
Joey, are you contemplating the end of harvest?
