Still digging potatoes...........

Sorry, no pictures. We are still digging. This is like the fall that never ends. It will be another week for sure, before we are done. Big crop. All the storages will be full. The Lord willing , we should be done by the end of next week. This is starting to remind me of digging carrots. It is heavy going, and we had a few breakdowns this morning. Slipclutch malfunction, the bolts fell out, and half hour later I blew a tire on the digger. So by lunch time, I was still doing my first round. And then it rained. But all in all, we still dug 25 loads by 10 o'clock. Anyway, I hope you all have a great weekend..............

holy cow! Sounds like digging is pretty heavy. I was just thinkning that if I weas there on the digger, I would be happy that I got to have a bit of a break, but then after a while realize I was freezing and just wanted to get going again and get something accomplished that day! I hope it goes better for you tommorow and that you will be all done by the end of next week! Im praying for you guys!Im proud of you Dad! You are doing a great job, and so is Mom.She is always so supportive of all of the things we do isnt she! Hope you have a successful day tommorow and that you have a nice relaxing day on Sunday! I love you very much! Dianna XOXOXOXO
