day in town and fixing a baler

Yesterday, we went to town, Wetaskiwin, for a 'parts-hunt'. The baler needed a few new parts and it's better to have parts in stock at home if you need them... And I had to do some business in town too. We left home around 10.30 am and were home around 5 pm. It was a loooong day in town. I was soo tired. Next project was to take the pickup and bring fuel to the guys in the field who were baling the whole day. I took the chance to be on the tractor during baling. Unfortunately, something got stuck in the baler and there was black smoke coming out of the baler !! Something wrong.. ! One of the belts had a problem and heated up the one metal roll. Okay... next thing is to fix this thing. The three of us spent around 2 hours to fix the baler. My job was to make sure all the bolts are there. It was interesting see how you can change a belt.
