Potato harvest

 Andy worked part time for friends this past harvest season driving a potato truck.  Here are a few pictures from his venture. Questions about the process? You'll have to ask him.  ;) All I know is there are lots and lots of potatoes in this neck of the woods.  Lays potato chips and McCains fries both have enormous factories in the area.  One is actually so close by to our farm that if the wind is the right direction we can smell the fries frying.  Which of course makes us instantly hungry.  ;)  It's pretty incredible to see the harvest of the land out here, vast fields with enormous machinery digging out mountains of food for the humans on this earth.  Food. More then enough, with literally tons going to waste. It's a blessing I hope we never take for granted.
