Broke down

The combine spent much of the day sitting, unfortunately.  A tie rod on the back left tire broke.  There was a parts run, which led to a second parts run, which turned in to an extended parts run...well, you get the idea.  It was a long day.  By 4:30 this afternoon, it was up and running again, but that made for a short day of combining.  However, we are thankful that the parts store was able to track down a part on a Saturday afternoon...even if it meant driving to Missouri to retrieve it!
