It's Corn Chopping Time!

Can I just mention again how much I love living Dietrich!!!   Hank and I lived a different life while we lived in Twin Falls. City life was not good for either of us! With us both working indoor jobs, going to school, never seeing each other due to jobs and school...BLAH. Needless to say I was MORE then ready when we decided that moving to Dietrich was the right thing to do.  True I still don't see Hank a lot because he is always working, but now.......I can just go to work with him!!!!! I love this time of year! We started chopping corn a couple weeks ago, it may not be everybody's favorite thing to do around here....but for me....I LOVE IT! I was not able to go ride with Hank as much as I would have liked to, but life is a little busier this year for me.
                                  I was able to go spend a whole day being Hank's little tag a long.

The day started in the truck. We would follow right beside the chopper while uncle John filled us up.

My job was pretty ruff!

After a while we had to switch out jobs and we started packing pit. Not my favorite thing....I'm a wimp! But we still had a good time. 

Pic on the left is from the bottom..........then going up. It's a little steeper then I liked!

 



Look how high we are

See them hay bails....yeah, we're taller!

 

 

Can you see why this might not be my favorite job. It's hard to tell, but you get darn near the edge



 

 

 

Christine (mother in law) adding more corn to our mountain

These next 3 pictures go together. After Christine finished unloading her truck she went to get back into her truck..........it was locked.

. If you can't tell.......this truck is very tall; so its a climb

I love her face here....finally got it unlocked. Christine cracks me up!

I'm totally bummed I had to take these from inside the tractor so they are not very clear

 



Squashed in a tractor together for about 3 hours with my husband = a very happy wife!

I have a pretty amazing life!
