Combine Makes Two Wide Swaths; Cobs Fed Through Separator**UPDATED BELOW**

For anyone who missed yesterday's late afternoon update, here it is again, with photos added from the webcam and other sources as they arrive:

After making two passes through the field, the combine operator has determined that, thanks to the heavy precipitation earlier this week, the grounds are too soggy to continue the work today, or Saturday. However, as of 4:10pm, when we type this update, the combine is now in its processing mode, and Not A Cornfield staffers are feeding ears of corn from 30 agriculture bins into one end of the machine, which then sorts, seperates and expels husks and kernels from the far end.

**UPDATE: Word has just arrived that the combine will remain at Not A Cornfield, parked and on-display, all next week. Then, on Monday, January 16 and Tuesday January 17, the remaining 20 or so acres of the cornfield will be harvested by the massive machine. One-hundred schoolchildren are visiting the project grounds this morning. As always, Not A Cornfield is open to the public daily, 6am-8pm.
