Harvest 2013
We had a very wet spring, which led to a planting season that lasted longer than normal. On Ryan's due date {June 23} Brent still had a couple of customers planting. This is not what would be considered normal. Summer was dry and the late summer heat really took a toll on crops. Harvest was fairly smooth weather-wise but yields were not anything stellar. We are always thankful for a safe season and any crop produced.
Ready to ride!
His favorite thing to do.
A whole day of riding with mom running the grain cart. A fun Saturday!
Catching up!
On this particular day we saw two deer that Uncle Brian chased out of the corn with the combine and three hairy and fat raccoons.
Another day, another rider.
Mommy and Hannah.
Ryan loved it, too!
Four generations of Perry farmers.

Skills lesson -- the pliers.
If you give a kid a tape measure...
he will measure everything!

We love any farm/tractor/combine time we can get (including mama) and look forward to next year.
Brent is already busy selling seed for 2014.
