THIS IS JOHN AND KARRIES PLACE NESTLED IN A NARROW DRAW, SURROUNDED BY WHEAT FIELDS, NEAR ST. JOHN, WA. THEIR NEIGHBOR WHO FARMS THE LAND MOVED HIS COMBINE IN TO START HARVESTING TOMMORRO...SO
IT SEEMED LIKE A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO PRETEND LIKE WE WERE FARMERS!
THIS JD 9750 IS ALL WHEEL DRIVE PACKING A 30' HEADER. IT IS A SIDEHILL HARVESTOR, MEANING IT LEVELS ITSELF ON THE CHASIS, TO KEEP EVERYTHING WORKING RIGHT. I DIDN'T GET TO SEE IT WORKING, BUT HOPEFULLY KARRIE WILL GET A SHOT OF IT WORKING ON ONE OF THOSE HILLSIDES!

A GOOD CROP OF WHEAT IN THE HEADLIGHTS... ON THE WAY BACK
I THINK SARAH WAS SAYING "DADDY, I WANT MY OWN 4-WHEELER!
STEPTOE BUTTE BETWEEN US.

Great pictures! Looks like you had a nice 4-wheeler ride with John and Sarah. Hope we get to see them all sometime soon. Thanks for sharing the "Summer Visitors" photos and the mountain pictures as well.
Nice to see your updates. Amazing how quickly families grow! Hard to believe John is a daddy 2x already!
Keep posting :-) Enjoyable music...
Thanks
