Thank you God, for the rain. We got just over three inches of rain in four days. We still need more, but every bit counts! Rain has made our Oklahoma dirt roads sloppy. These slick roads result in getting into the ditch. Local oil field trucks...
During harvest we have structure. We all have our own delegated tasks to complete each day; mom makes breakfast, dad buys ice and fills up water jugs and the cooler, and Brandon and I fuel up and service machines. When we get home, the structure...
