That must have been scary, and I bet there was a huge amount of dust and bits thrown up. There was a combine in the field near to us and we were showered with bits of straw. People who suffer from hay fever must have a terrible time.
Campsite owner and owner of the filed did warn us, they even waited until the wind was blowing away from the site. That night it rained so all the dust washed off the tent. My little lad loved it!!

Not really that scary for us farmers, we are used to cutting right to the edge, and hay fever is not a problem as the air conditioning would have been flat out. Could have been quite an experience for the poor bugger in the tent though!
We are lucky enough to live next to a wheat field and my 2 DS's are exactly the same at harvest time. OH pretends to be blase about it, but he loves watching just the same! Have to admit it is quite mesmeric to watch.
Think I may have left the tent for the duration tho'!
