We have hauled oats all day and got in five loads but there are still a couple more in the field. We put part of one load on the stack and one in the barn and then started to build another stack on the west side of the barn doors. The sheaves are shorter now and much harder to stack. Frank helped us unload and spent the rest of the time weeding in the garden. Still cool with east wind.
