  1. I am in Virginia - SW Virginia, to be exact. We're in the Appalachian mountains. After days and days of rain, we've had two sunny days in a row. Temperatures here should get into the upper 40's tonight, and the highs tomorrow will be in the 60's. This is the first of cooler temperatures around here. I love fall, so I'm looking forward to it!

    Happy harvesting!

  6. Crazy that you're just now harvesting wheat in ND...we do that in KS at the end of June! We are planting wheat right now. Wheat harvest and frost do not go together around here. Our soybeans are almost ready for harvesting. We might be harvesting milo (grain sorghum) after the first frost. Highs near 70/75, low tonight might get all the way down to 37 - which will be the coldest we've had yet so far!

  7. In the heart of Illinois the temps have dropped back to low 60's today with 35 mph wind gusts. Tonight, lows in the 40s and tomorrow night in the 30s. Much cooler earlier this Fall than last year. Not much color yet.

  11. Oh Dear, the freezing temp this morning got the tomatoes and cukes. I was out covering them last night, but a wind must have blown off the covers. It was 32 at 6am! I'm in the Panhandle of Nebraska.

  17. We live in northern AL, very close to TN. This week the temps are supposed to be in the low 70's during the day and upper 40's at night. I love that time when you can just leave the windows open all day long. And it finally stopped raining!!!

  18. First frost???? Oh no!
    Not ready for that here. I just planted a late garden not long ago and I must receive atleast one mess off cucumbers and green beans.
    It's been in the high 50's at night and around 80 during the day here in South Carolina. Supposed to be this way the rest of the week. It's beautiful weather.

  19. Northern Virginia. It's been absolutely beautiful but there is a new 'crispness' in the breeze. Love your blog and as a farm girl now stuck in the city I always enjoy your harvest/farm pictures.

  20. Kansas is GORGEOUS! Middle 70's with sunshine! Sunflower fields are abloom everywhere. Our wheat harvest usually ends the first weeks of July. Mornings are covered with fog and dampness on the ground. Evenings are CHILLY!

  21. I am in Arkansas close to the Oklahoma line. Our weather was down to 40 last night. In OK we do our harvesting in June. We are now getting ready to sew our wheat. I have family that does custom harvesting all the way up to North Dakota.

  38. Looks like the harvest turned out well! The farmers down here didn't fair so well with the drought.

  39. I've never actually seen wheat up close like that before. When I hear it looks like a field of gold, your second picture proves it. So pretty it's almost dazzling! And the wheat kernels? berries? (not sure which is right) are wonderful. You take some of the best pictures of your fields that I actually feel like I'm there. It calms me, you know? I can just imagine the wind blowing and the smell of fresh clean earth. *sigh* Thanks so much for that. xxoo
