Another Miscellany Monday

     It's a somewhat quiet morning here in Owyhee County. A great deal of the farmers are in their shops, working on their combines in order to continue the wheat harvest. That leaves very little for me to photograph.

     The cool hours of the morning are a valuable time. During the heat of the day, most folks would rather be in a nice cool place. So the irrigating gets done early. If you're lucky, you can spend the hottest hours of the day in the air-conditioned cab of a tractor of combine.

     So, while the early bird gets the worm, (or much more likely a mouse, in this case) the early farmer gets his outside chores done early, so he doesn't get cooked in the heat.

     Business continues as usual. Haying is perpetual, as the above picture shows, and soon it won't just be the wheat that needs harvesting.
     I encourage any readers to ask any questions they may have, either in the comments section here or on the site's facebook page. I never know what details I missing if you don't.
     I hope to see you all back here tomorrow!
