    Thank God indeed SDG. A front wheel and with weight on. No time to mess pants. Just hang on and muscle truck steering as much to the shoulder as possible. (Seatbelt in that old girl is a lap belt). It was like a bucking bronc for a second.

    Truly though, it was more dangerous unloading into another truck on the highway. Lots of flares and flashing lights don't slow people,down these days. They drive like nut jobs. Is there never enough time for people to get to the next destination anymore?

    Stay safe everyone.

        At 40 percent done seeding . conditions are fair at best.ground still spongy.tank tracks will be a real issue. Farm was pre fertilized so it help dry things out..but soil very lumpy.only one rain dump away from being grounded..but it will be what it will be..
        Unseeded acres will be at all time high on our farm this yr..water standing now means it will be to late to seed.

          Starting today, wheat, lumpy muddy, shame to put the nice seed into shitty seed bed.
          Very wet around Kelvington on their hills and slopes. Archerwill and west wet, field work around mud holes.
          Rain going away, still COOL, Farma we ALL will need those showers to germ seed in LUMPY shit.

            Same problem here. Not happy with the seed bed at all. Dirt cold and doesn't flow well... Trash is a problem as soon as the sun goes down.


            Sometimes I wonder if all the stress and headaches are worth it... Then you see this and think yeah... It's worth it.

              Had a front blow out once. That was enuf for me. When kid, one truck on log haul lost a wheel and he made a tobogan outta the truck. I take all trucks in for an inspection as appropriate even if not legislated cause of that.

              One more dump of rain here and I call the floater trucks.

                It looks to me like the Omega Block is over the city of Regina again. Clouds can't break through. Come on buggar, prove me wrong!

                  It's time to park the seeding apparatus and find a fishing boat. They are catching their limits 😀 I gave up on mushrooms cause you guys won't tell me where your favourite picking spots are. 👎

                    Still waiting and I need a week of todays weather to get going. Finally a south west wind and sunshine. If you look out in the fields you see ruts full of water so almost need a miracle for this to end well.

                      Too wet - Too dry
                      After that frost, all our crops would benefit from a sweet inch.
