Good Day to All of You. It's been awhile again, but I haven't forgot about you. It's the day we share our workspace over at Ms. Julia's HERE.
I have spent a few days in my crafty space
the other tractor and 2 big wagons (Below) He leaves and I pick him up again for the 2nd tractor and 2 more wagons. We sometimes make another trip, if I have to be gone to come back home and get his truck, that way he can come home, go for parts or gas and I don't have to be involved. It usually takes 2 or 3 days to a field if all goes good. When his wagons are full, he takes them to our Co-Op to unload for storage and sells when the market is GOOD...if there is such a thing.
This is our lane to the road, I usually walk to the end to get our mail. To the left is a green pasture for the cows who will be anxiously waiting for him to finish the corn on the right so they can be there cleaning up corn etc. He puts up a lot of electric fence so all the area is covered and they don't wander to the roadway or other farmers fields near by.
Having some beautiful fall weather mid 70's and almost no winds. Harvest has been great and the day of rain was OK by me. These farmers don't quit unless they have to and when it rains they have lots of paper work to get sorted out and enjoy some quiet time.
Wishing you all good things.

I love visiting your world my friend. What a trip just to get the mail. I have a small driveway from my garage to the street to my mailbox and I think I have accomplished something! Hehehe.... Love all the crafty things going on in your craft room...going to be beautiful!
It's always lovely to see your crafty fun but this week I've really enjoyed seeing your farm....it's so lovely to picture where you live.

Lovely photos of your farm in action - it's really hard work at harvest but probably the same all year round really. I'm glad the weather was kind and that you are getting it all sorted. Enjoy your crafty activity - we all love parcels through the post! xx Jo
What an interesting post, Sylvia. I loved hearing about your farm life and the harvest of the corn. The land looks very flat where you are. Here, it's all hills! What a gorgeous display of wood-mounted stamps, and I absolutely love the stamping on the craft card, and that utterly fabulous distressed cardboard! Really grungy and delicious!
Thank you for your visit, and I'm glad you enjoyed seeing all my photos. I do hope you try the tofu. I absolutely love it! Fortunately my hubby doesn't, so all the more for me haha! I hope you manage to find some in the shops. We haven't had too many problems so far, although things are a little unpredictable and it's surprising what things are available and which ones aren't at times.
Happy WOYWW,

I agree with the others, it is good to see round your farm a bit. I am with you with the shopping and getting mail! Helen #2
Nice you are back with us blogging but I guess it must get busy for you on the farm. That's a long way to go to collect your mail each day. Thank goodness mine is behind the door in the hallway.
thanks for the photos of the farm and the machinery, that combine is a huge beast.
So glad you have got some crafting in, I love Kraft paper, especially with white stamping on it, but black looks good especially if you colour the flowers in.
Hugs, Neet 9 xx
I do so love wood-mounted stamps, yours look lovely. Happy WOYWW! Elle #21, EOTC
Hi Sylvia, bet you thought I'd got lost but just needed to get some more gardening done and then a friend asked us to pop over and before you know it's time for bed Lol! Looks like you've been busy and not just with the crafting. Loving the woodmounted stamps, great collection. Wishing you a lovely creative woyww, Angela xXx
Hi there, good to see you on the desks today! Loved the visit to your farm, so interesting to hear how harvest goes, always hard work wherever in the world you are! Nice to see the Happy Mail too, that’s a lovely lot of stamps, look forward to seeing what you get up to with those!
Hugs LLJ 6 xx
Hi, Glad to see you playing with your new stamps. I loved reading about your farm. Harvest time is so critical. It’s odd for me to think of mail not being delivered to the door, but everywhere is different. , Take care, have a good week
Hugs

So glad the harvest is going well Sylvia - it makes me really grateful to farmers when you see the work they do to keep everyone fed. Great projects on your desk too and a fabulous crafty haul! Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #3
Oh Sylvia, farming on such a scale is incredibly hard work isn’t it. Am very pleased to read that harvest is going well, what a relief. The collection of stamps from your shopping spree is absolutely lovely, and isn’t new stuff inspiring! I like the images on the Kraft paper, I wonder what you’re planning this time…? a time will tell!
Farming is such a busy life! A very belated happy WOYWW. I look forward to seeing what you do with the flowers on the Kraft paper. Angela #8
I just love combines, take me back to years of fun! The combine on the farm I loved on was old then, and a lot smaller, but us kids would 'help'...the best bit was making camps out of the bales! We'd make maze type tunnels...I've been binge buying too so have fun with your crafty finds! Happy Last weeks WOYWW! Stay Safe, Keep on crafting! ((Lyn))
