Limon, Colorado—There is nothing worse than being sick in the summer time. Somewhere over the last week I picked up a bad cold I've really been fighting. Because I've been sick, I've been taking advantage of lying in bed a little later than usual. Yesterday...

Brush, Colorado—I'm back to using song lyrics themes for my posts. This one, from "The Bug" by Mary Chapin Carpenter, is quite appropriate as it feels like we've been more bug lately than windshield, but that is starting to turn around. Let's back up a...

St. Francis, Kansas—These last couple days, I have really gotten familiar with the back roads of St. Francis. Our fields range from being 15 miles west of Franny to 20 miles south of Franny. Rather than load up the combine for that distance, we just...

Limon, Colorado—Not a whole lot has happened since the last post. We're sitting on green wheat. Are you surprised? The eastern Colorado area had an above average looking crop in the early spring. Everyone was excited for the summer crop but this spring after a...

St. Francis, Kansas—If you were to ask me about my surroundings today, I would be able to tell you that I could see Colorado from our field. It’s rather ironic because we were in a field that we refer to as the “crater field” because...

I admit it. I enjoyed my two-ish weeks at home (really, family, friends, and a fully equipped, full sized kitchen for harvest meals—what more could you want?). If you would have asked me just a few days ago, I probably would have said I wasn't...

Limon, Colorado—Where to begin, where to begin. Callie and I are FINALLY back on the harvest run. And when I say "run," I mean it. These last two days have been nothing but driving, and I'm glad my butt can finally sit in a recliner...

Northeast Colorado—Sometimes no news is good news, but right now, no new postings from High Plains Harvesting means no news is no news. We went from having the harvest facet on full blast to not even a trickle. The temperatures are unseasonably cool and spotty...

My goal in writting for All Aboard is to help better the understanding of agriculture, depict our way of life with all of its ups and downs, and to help inspire, motivate, and create AGvocates. It seems I constantly question why I do this work,...

This Independence Day, Misener Family Harvesters had the chance to kick up our feet and relax for a change! It rained and it was still too wet to cut, so we made a day of it. We slept in, did some work in the shop...
