Most of the bugs seem to be gone.  The floor of the porch is covered with bug corpses.  Yeesh, what a mess!


It's after midnight here.  I stepped outside just now and the farmer who owns the next field over is still out there with his tractor, harvesting his corn.  I suspect a lot of the farmers around here don't actually own their own equipment (at least, not the BIG stuff like combines) but either rent or have some kind of co-op sharing system.  They get to use the equipment for only so many days, so if they're running behind they must have to work late into the night.
