Rain, rain more rain.

Wow, its been a few days since I did my last entry. We have been getting too much rain and it is making it difficult to get into the fields. The potatoes are starting to die down fairly quickly are are being topped. The potatoes that will be going into winter storage are left in the ground 3 weeks after topping to allow them to build up tougher skins for handling. The beans for processing are being harvested by huge machines that strip them off the plants and into a bin. We are getting rot in some areas of the beans from too much rain, it can spread fast if not harvested soon enough. I am having a hard time getting my spraying done between showers. The odd time the sun comes out and things feel better.
We are getting excited about our winter trip to Mexico, doing planning and talking to the other members of our crew. We are planning of leaving Canada about the 8th of Oct. and tour around the states for a while on our way to Yuma. There we will stay about 10 days. I have a side awning to put up on our camper, solar panels and some work to do on our tow vehicle. We will be grouping up there with the others and hope to cross into Mexico around the 7th of November.
