My last post had video of them making and loading up the large straw bales, here's a few pictures of them moving them into more orderly stacks after dumping the loads near the barn. Oleg always shares video, so I tried to get some screenshots.
Garry is not sure where they found a telehandler to move the bales around and stack them.
Last week they got a drone to spray insecticide on the corn field, the hot dry weather had swarms showing up in the irrigated cornfield, looking for something green to eat. The black spots are the flying grasshoppers. Garry didn't know the Russian word for grasshopper when he talked to Max last week, so the video cleared up exactly why they had to spray.
Anyway, Garry is busy with trying to coordinate a fall trip to Ukraine with Daryl, Jack and who knows else may come in October or November. Max has decided that building another "heifer barn" would be useful, as they are keeping and raising bull calves now. Obviously it would be a steer raising shed, though.
