Starting the last round...
Glad it's over, this was the longest harvest that I can remember. Just wanted to share. Thanks.

Know you were tired and maybe a bit chilled by the time the day was over. Glad you got it done before the heavy snow hit. It can be a bear trying to get corn out of a field full of snow drifts. Thanks for posting. God Bless.

Yep, I'm stiff and sore today. Something's gonna happen. Friend of mine in Leavenworth KS says they got ice down there. Don't know which is worse. Ice or Blizzard?

We are still seeing headlights in the fields here, rain is ever sneaking in with some fields left to abandon due to too soft.

Awesome pictures! I'd sure be happy for those cabs on the tractors in weather like that! What kind of ground speed can you make with that 4 row cornhead? That R42 is a LOT more combine behind a head that size than an F2. Mike

Thanks for the comments guys, we are located in Northeast Nebraska Eric, its a 436 corn head and it's about all the R-42 can handle. The R-42 is a good bean machine, but in the corn there just isn't enough room and time for the corn to seperate out of the trash ending up in some rotor loss.

Great pics! Could you imagine being out there with a WC w/picker and a flare wagon...not all progress is bad! I helped my brother in southern SD get his corn and beans out a month ago already.....kinda nice to ride around in a heated cab tractor, push buttons to shift gears, stadium lights to brighten up the night, and talk on cell phones to communicate.

Great pictures Doug, I enjoy them. Is that Magnum also from you? These are nicest models of Magnums in my eye's. Always like the 71 and 72 series.

I agree, the Magnums were decent tractors. My buddy has a 7230 that I drive from time to time.
