Two nights ago, right after school, the kids and I hit the fields to get their combine rides of the harvest season! And yes the kids are still in their school uniforms!
We hit the field with my Uncle and Cousin's and their hiredmen at about quarter till 4 pm and stayed out till about 8:30 pm. I grabbed what pictures I could but I even went on a ride or two! Felt like a kid again especially since I hadn't been in a combine since I was my kids' age and they weren't as fancy as what they use now!
1. This is Coltin coming down out of the combine because he heard over the radio before Nick (the guy driving the combine) stopped that it was Supper time!
2. The kids eating in the back of Great Auntie's work truck!
3. The men eating picnic style on the ground!
4. Short lil woman near the big guy in a green shirt is my Auntie and the guy in the green shirt is my Uncle. This picture is a nightly harvest ritual or it is just a nightly ritual for the hiredmen. It is a coin gamble game. I have no clue what the name is called but if your on site and you have a quarter your playing! This was Auntie giggling over all the men getting all excited.
5. This picture is midflip of one of the times they are gambling. Okay I had an altermotive of snagging a specific butt shot! And trust me it isn't the flat one! Heheheh who needs to buy a calandar of hot men when you can take unsuspecting pictures of men around you and make your own!
6. This grumpy looking man is my Uncle. My mom's second oldest brother. He and I were on the way over to the farm to unload that rig behind him into the bins when his wifey, my auntie, radioed out and said she was 2 miles from the field with Supper. So we stopped, got out and walked back over to where everyone else was at. I love his shirt! It is so my uncle!
