For the past two days, Dan has been on the tractor with the smoothing harrows trying to keep ahead of his brother Denis on the planter. All the corn is in the ground (650 acres of our own plus 75 for another farmer); they are putting in soybeans now (130 acres) and doing a fair amount of rock-picking (20 dump-truck loads so far).
You can barely see Dan in this shot because he is wearing the same color shirt as the tractor. I've just brought him lunch which he will eat as he drives, instead of taking a real break. He is doing all this fieldwork in addition to both morning and night milking.
