Corn Harvest

My parents purchased a bagger this year so that they can store their corn on the edge of the field and have it shipped at a later date. This makes it possible to capture some better prices and cuts down on harvest freight expenses. Here is Mom standing next to the bagger. Each bag holds about 8,000 bushels, or 8 semi loads of corn. Here they come!
Ryan's first combine ride. He was so excited to see the corn go into the head that he would not even look to the side to see Daddy in the tractor next to us. (He always looks for Daddy when we talk about him.)
