I'm not finished but I've never been this far along at this time of year either.
It's always a relief to be done yet I feel some sense of melancholy making that last pass in the combine. Crazy?

Time now for fall tillage, get a jump on next spring.
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

Yep, it's a crazy mixed emotion thing. Great to be getting done but don't want to quit running the combine either. Especially when it's working good like this year! I've been done for three weeks, combine is cleaned up and put to bed. That's a good feeling.

Need about 1 good week here yet to finish hauling jobs and get my own done. Most of the people are done around here. Had a gal call the other day, they have around 50 acres, she was looking for an extra truck to haul. Rain forecast for Monday and Tuesday here and then more for the following weekend. Hope we can get more corn harvested and get done before deer hunting/ Thanksgiving week.

The feeling of another harvest behind you is truly bitter sweet. We all have only so many harvests in us and each one is a count down. On the brighter side,     it is such a relief when they are over. It’s like the smiles on the boys faces when they drive the cattle down Main Street of Belle Fourche in The Cowboys. “There’s nothing like bringing in the herd”.

All the years I was a hired hand, were on farming operations they were livestock based. When harvest was over, depending on the year, we may or may not have had the opportunity to ‘go thru’ all the harvest equipment. Some of us in the farming community were not able to ‘take the winter off & watch PornHub all day’. (wink, wink)
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

The only one she took this year of equipment was the Gleaner splitting the field.
Thanks for the comments

What a mixed bag finishing harvest can be. Harvest is not as much pressure here in the land of do it tomorrow or manana in Mexican corrupted Spanish.  In the old days small grain harvest could stretch for June to late September. But always looking for being done, but if your own acres always nice to have more crop to have more income, still waiting in the field.

To my days in the vineyard business of sit and wait, the acid level is to high be compared to sugar. Or high heat shuts down sugar production. And then the wine maker decides today is it.  

Thanks for the pictures.

Interesting what range of experiences we go through depending on area, crop, and weather. I figured weather had an impact on grapes but not to what extent

I think one of shameless last posts was how much he enjoyed combining corn, especially at night. Don't think he lasted much more after that final harvest

Finished yesterday. Cancelled thousands of dollars of dentistry to pick hundreds of dollars of corn. Finished fall tillage a week ago. Really no excuse not to be done this year with extremely dry weather. Only corn left on field are the guys who always combine in April

This passion to farm is kinda crazy ain't it. I'm confused. No fall tillage on corn ground?
