Well, the breakdowns didn't stop with the semi yesterday. As they were fixing the wheel bearing on the semi, Quentin noticed hydraulic oil leaking on the combine. Then, when the red truck came back to the field, he noticed that a front tire on it was cracked all around the rim! We were starting to feel like it was just not our day to harvest, BUT we still had blessings to count. The hydraulic leak was a minor fix, the semi was fixed within a couple hours, and the red truck was up and running soon after. Most importantly, Quentin noticed the red truck tire before it blew out on Ken cruising down the highway. The day, while frustrating, could have been much, much worse. Everything was back up and running before dark, and they were able to get a good chunk of Chambers' on Austin Frank's cut.
