    Now, just pretend you had nothing seeded and ponder that feeling. With all due respect. At least you thought you could go today. I need at least a week before I would even try. Can't even spray.

    FWIW, I am sorry for all of us, but just some perspective.

        It does suck getting stuck. Sending my ****seed out this week. What a mess of a yard. Gotta pull semis everytime they wanna move, even loaded!

        Did you get her out? Wish you well in that. Hard not to break anything sometimes.

        A guy just can't win with anything these days.

                Sprayed 900 acres yesterday, mostly Canola stubble. Low spots that were dry earlier and harrowed through now have as much as a foot of water in them. 400 acres is very soft!! chewed up and down most side hills and flat areas. Found it better to drive right through the water as it was firmer .
                If we miss the rain for a week or more we "might" make 2/3 done. Any guesses on how close to StatsCan intended acres for Canola, mustard, flax, canary and lentils ?? will Barley and oats be 150-200% ???

                  Guess we are in a little world of our own, but we finished seeding today..Only 74 acres left that is under water and will be summer fallowed or seeded for green feed...Fall tillage .. Sure helps ...

                    Seen two tractors pulling one airdrill today - never seen that before!! That was on the way way there, on the way back - stuck, and three guys doing the chicken dance. Alot of things goes through ones mind when you see that.
