Sunday

Well there was a lite rain in the morning but after lunch the wheat was good to go. I rode with Jon in the evening till quitting time around 10pm. The trucks were full and the farmer had to move the auger to another bin, so we were done for the night. When everyone got to the front of the field and shut down, we all stood outside with our necks cranked up to the sky. It was a beautiful night. This big old sky was dark as can be, with no moon or clouds. There were more stars than any of us had ever seen, and brighter too! With no houses or yardlights for miles, and no glow of towns or cities on the horizon we had spectacular views. We spotted more than a dozen shooting stars, ooing and aahing over each one. Chris knows a lot about stars and constellations and educated us, he even pointed out 3 red stars, it was really neat. Nice and cool out tonight so we slept with the camper windows open.
