This past week, we've had a full house - busting at the seams full. My sister Katie and her family from Kansas came down to visit, as well as my sister Marie and her family from North Dakota. It's always nice to have them come...
Shattuck, Okla. – Small town cafes are hard to beat. You know, the ones with local pictures and signs with witty sayings hanging on the walls. The food tastes like home-cooked meals and the people working there greet you with a big smile when you...
I'm sure it comes as no surprise when I say rain has stopped all action for Osowski Ag. It started Tuesday night and has continued on throughout the week, even though the weather man said it was supposed to be smooth sailing from Thursday night...
Crazy busy. That has to be the biggest understatement for the Misener family this past week.
It all started (and we like to tease August about it) when August got the combine stuck. We were driving in mud that was two feet deep in places, but he is the only one that buried the big green beast. I think it's safe to say he is now officially part of the family. We didn't even need to get a tractor to pull him out, we just unloaded the hopper. With the four-wheel-drive and a lot of backup power we were able to get him unstuck and cutting again in a few minutes.
This is what we were driving through. In the low parts of the fields, the water was easily up to one to two feet deep.
She's back in action! My friend Abby came to help us out for about ten days. She is taking a break from her job on the far northern edge of Alaska to drive the big green machines again. Abby first came on harvest is 2008 and...
We were in Kansas, driving down the highway headed to Oklahoma, when we heard it. It was the sound of the National Weather Service’s storm alert saying that there was a severe thunderstorm watch. For us, we only hear that sound in the summer, so...
The circus better know as Osowski Ag Service has officially changed location. We are now in Helena, Okla. After getting all the equipment loaded, getting the camper packed away, and paying all our bills, we ended up leaving Hobart around 2pm. We arrived in Helena around 5pm, practically...
Productivity was at an all time high today. We started off like every other day with our combine and the farmer’s combine along with a grain cart and two semis. By 4 p.m., we had four semis and three combines thanks to some friendly neighbors who...
It has officially been a week since we arrived in good ol’ Hobart, Okla. Today was another one of those days where you wonder where it went. It was steady going but we did have some obstacle-like fields to deal with that included numerous terraces,...
Today flew by. Simple as that. Dad decided that it was my day to fuel up our service truck which also meant I had to wake up before everyone else. But that also meant I got to wake everyone up as loudly and obnoxiously as...
