It is now October 31st and I’ve officially finished my last shift at the Sabin MN piling station. It’s been a very trying month, with lots of downtime due to weather. The actual work hasn’t been too bad although there were a few times we got slammed as farmers tried to play catch up. I was slightly surprised at the number of people who left early, or hired on late and only lasted a few days. These were mostly local people, not the RVers. We’ve had short shifts the last couple of days and that came in handy to prep the RV for travel again. Looks like I’ve done OK financially although I won’t have final numbers until my last check in about a week. At this point, I’m really looking forward to hitching up in the morning and heading south to get out of these frigid temps.
