Day 1 (7/23) / 2024 Highwood, Montana Harvest

Well, what WE thought might be an “ease in” situation turned into “hot and heavy” right off the bat!
The wheat is dry. But the straw is green. This combination makes for a slow pace.
And if you’re not slow enough, it’s time to dig out the combine. I was the only lucky one today.

Thanks for another great video Tracey. It was interesting and absolutely beautiful wheat fields!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness-God’s country if you ask me. Those wonderful wheat fields are just beholding to look at. Just beautiful!!!!! You and Jim are so fortunate to have this time in your lives to be doing harvest in the wheat fields!!!!!! Tracey, you got your feet on the ground quickly and you look good in that big John Deere combine. I can’t tell for sure but I believe you have a 60 foot header?? You look good going down across those wheat fields. The wheat looks real good and I assume is producing quite well. Those wheat fields are so beautiful to look at with the machinery in the fields and especially at sunset!!!!!! Wow!!!!!! If my health would not have changed, I gave good thought to seeing if a harvest crew would have me for a couple of years. I just think it is a gift of farming to be on a harvest crew like what you and Jim have done for years. Enjoy your time there. !!!!!!! Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow. Sincerely appreciate your efforts in doing the videos for us. Just like being there. You all take care and be safe!!!!!’ With my blessings always. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 😊😊👍👋🙏💕💕🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@lorcanfarrell9743]

Beautiful video and music to accompany. I travelled over from Ireland 17 years ago and worked for Allen Harvesting out of Jamestown North Dakota. We visited Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, SD and ND. One of our stops was Ogallalla which I believe is down I-80 from you guys. We used to haul into Big Springs. You're video is bringing me right back! Would love to run a combine or a truck again, even if only for a day!

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Fun to see familiar places and know that you’ve been there! Ogallala has the same alien on their water tower that was there when I was a young girl. Things change. And yet they stay the same. So glad you’re a part of our journey! And thanks for sharing your memories with me!

[@Husker3435]

Great job y’all, Tracy, you have a knack for pairing the perfect music to the footage. As always, watching y’all harvest takes me down memory lane years ago, thanks and take care…GBR🌽🏈🌽

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Thank you for your kind words!

[@NAVisiontv]

Sounds amazing! Music can really evoke emotions and memories in a piece of film. She did a great job.

[@nancyb9404]

That sure looks like bueatiful field of wheat, looks like the yeild should be high. Looked like there was a couple of spots where the wheat was flat, it happens some times. The first time back in the machine has to be a bit of an adventure, but you got it. It is in your blood!! Fun to watch. Thank you and the far.er for growing and harvesting our food.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

It is deep in my soul! And so thankful we have this job to come to.

[@panders55]

Brings back a lot of memories myself. I went from 72 thru the 74 run and for quite a few years afterwards I would stand there at work and watch the crews head south or north on US 81 in Kingfisher, ok. It does get in your blood.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Ohhhhh so bad! Pulls on the ole heart strings when you see the loaded machines.

You both are my age so i understand that pull or huge tug that you feel every harvest season. I think you'll both last longer before you have to go see the Lord. You might be tired at the end of the day but it will be a very very good type of tired !! Harvest I've always felt is a Holy thing. You find it many times throughout scripture. Ps. Your video's are Beautiful to say the least. Keep em comin !!!!!❤😊

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Thank you for your kind words!! This job was truly a God thing. He knew my soul needed fed by the harvest! Glad you’re a part of our journey.

[@oceanmariner]

We got the big red ball in the sky in Oregon, but in the morning. If there's no fog. In the winter, usually no ball at all. Just rain.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Rain would be better than snow! 😉

@@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking I can remember a few mornings milking cows in Tillamook at 0°F.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

[@oceanmariner]

@@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking I'd send some, but it would be soup by the time you get it. Tillamook Creamry Assn has the highest standards for incoming milk. 10x better than state or federal standards. It makes a difference in the final product. I still miss my cows.

Wheat harvest is so relaxing. When the wheat is standing and watching the reel folding the grain in the head. Is like poetry in motion to a combine operator. 😍

Absolutely right!!!

Hi Tracy, from Wisconsin we just finished our winter wheat. We’ve had a lot of rain and I missed your videos. I hope you keep sending beautiful videos from Montana be safe.

[@wyatt12358]

Nothing runs like a DEERE but MASSEY was the leader in combines in the old days. I worked from 1989-2012 on pea, sweetcorn, potato, carrot, harvesting. Long hours, only breaks came when it rained. worked most of the time as a truck driver hauling into the Rochester, Mn. Seneca canning factory. Rain days were usually fixing days in shop or just maintenance in field, so there was not really much time off. Rochester canning company closed up. I still work the grain corn and soybean planting and harvesting though.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]

Sounds like all of ag! Actually, I really do prefer the New Holland combine. 😉

[@wyatt12358]

@@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking yeah nothing wrong with the other brands. The only reason my dad bought MASSEY and JOHN DEERE is because they were close to our farm and JOHN DEERE has a dealership at least every 40 miles apart or closer where I live. JOHN DEERE has about 4 to 1 more dealerships nation wide than the others and a lot more service techs but they are NOT ANY LOWER PRICED.

[@ZeorianHarvestingTrucking]
