Harvest Time

A dirty job; somebody's got to do it.

The combine's just dumped part of its load into the orange trailer and has turned to make its next pass through the wheat. The chaff goes out the chute; the wheat stays in the harvester. I found this guy by keeping my eye out for the characteristic cloud of dust.

There's a bigger truck waiting for it to arrive at the other end of the field.

In the past three days nearly every wheat field in Roxand Township's been harvested. Clearly it's time.
