The first picture showes a field that was covered with hay mulch. We cover the fields to help prevent soil erosion. Marten has been at this for the last couple of days. He was working to far away to get a picture of him doing it. But here is the result anyway. Looks like the field is nicely covered.
In this picture, Tineke is ripping up the headland. The heavy truck tracks left in the field from harvesting get loosened up again.
And then we get to the plowing. Klaas and I are at it with two plows. A lot of times we are going behind one another. It gets a little complicated at the ends sometimes. But we have got that down to a science. I drive in the back, and never have to stop. Klaas seems to be able to get in the furrow again before I complete my loop on the headland.
Later in the day we had some sea gulls over for a snack. They took off an hour or so later and left lots of tips, mostly on the windows.........
