Kristy Misener – Misener Family Harvesters

I haven’t written for a bit because I honestly don’t know what to tell you. We are done harvesting wheat for the year, I’m afraid. The next several stops on our trek have been canceled…the farmers have called and it’s official.  Poor crop conditions, due to weather-related issues and low price of wheat are the reason. Dan has been busy trying to locate work; but no luck.  We are not the only harvesters in this position. Many others are experiencing the same difficulties. While I am blue over the prospect, I have faith that with God’s help, we will make it through this. We’ve never starved yet!! I’m grateful we aren’t a long way from home – it costs money to go down the road. On the positive side, I’ve had a lot more time with my grand kids. The girls and I had a lovely wet water time in the Oklahoma heat washing all the vehicles while the littlest ones played in the pool in the shade. We all had fun!
