12:18 AM
I backed up pictures from what was yesterday already. The rest of the guys are watching a movie since it rained in the field as we finished up. I'm not sure what will happen later today. I know it rained some in the field, but I don't know how much. We are almost out of spring wheat that is dry enough to cut, but we may check a couple other fields that are close. Meanwhile, it's bedtime for me.
8:15 AM
Wake up call with Brent. Sounds like we ran out of propane overnight and there is no hot water for showers. Tyler got on that first thing and so we should have some hot water when we get done today. It's the little things in life such as that that make it more interesting.
11:14 PM
Back at the trailers again. We quit just after dark tonight. Machine #5 is back working again after the hydro issues. It then overheated on us and we found the problem to be with the air screen on the right side. Apparently one of the hydraulic leaks got the screen covered in oil, so it wouldn't let any air into the cooling system. Some high pressure air took care of that and everything went well from there.
