May 11 1977 we started seeding that day, it rained and then continued to rain for 5 days after, then we started seeding.

Rum front blew in here as well. Beer clouds forecast until mid week. 4.5/10s and it looks to be "re-grouping" south of here. Alarm 1 is off (window d****s are pulled). Hopefully alarm 2 (3 year old with a hate on for sleep) is down till mid morning as well.

If we get rained out Saturday night I'll prepare a Mother's Day supper so she doesn't have to cook it for everyone else to celebrate her day. Happy Mother's Day to all the AV Moms...

We got to 75% done. Progress has been a little slower with some mid morning starts and early evening stops because of tough pea stubble....what a match wouldn't do.... but this soil needs the residue. Down to flax. Things are chugging along quite well otherwise. With the Apprentice's young legs I feel like we could be doing more...but whats wrong with being satisfied with what we have and me maybe enjoying the break from having to do nearly all the work myself and not knowing if I'm coming or going and meeting myself in the process.

Take care and work safe.

That rattling sound on the roof is mother nature driving the last nails in my coffin.

If it's rain Makar, I'll take half an inch of it. Rain "forecast" here for Saturday overnight....I ain't bettin the farm on it but it would sure be nice to get some and seal the deal on germination of just planted canola. Enviro Canada has flip flopped their forcast a couple of times already and Lerner's doesn't look too promising for anything substantial. Some people's curse could be my blessing....but I'm not looking to be canonized(lol)...just a little prayer answered. And would someone please pull the ****in plug on the wind already....my goodness its relentless. ..wears you down working in it.

Mustard being seeded into dust. No flax going in at our place. After the mustard tomorrow, just 1000 acres of Canaryseed. We are also 70-75% done. Some of our seed is sitting in dry ground. Hope we can borrow an inch of your rain Furrow? Not asking for much, are we.

If the weather holds june 1 looks good.
