    Someone always has it worse. The pasture near shamrock claimed a few hundred head of cattle. Maybe high salt content in the water.

          We were vvery lucky and got under a small intense cloud yesterday. Ended up with 1.2 inches which doubles what we had up until that point. It didnt get the whole farm but we will take it.

                Zero rain in the the Sahara Slum of the Ghetto.

                Today and tomorrow the crops get a rest/break from the scorching sun and heat.

                I can't imagine what the the guys think when they see some of the pics posted here that are drier than our farms are. And I'm sure there are guys worse off than me too. I am grateful for what is here because I know there is worse out there----dry worse.

                I can't make it rain but I can accept the fact what I see in the field is what I will get, I did my part to the best of my ability and that is all that can be expected......the rest is out of my control. A lot of good luck needed in this gamble.

                        There are thunderstorms all around us but we have only .2 tenths so far. A half inch would be ok but after a dozen or more years of flooding I get very nervous when storms are rolling around. There is an ocean of water just under the surface but when you seed so wet the roots struggle to get to it and a half inch would help with that. I think if we got an inch the water would be pooling up and running.

                          I would prefer no rain the rest of the summer over flooding. Its one year since the town of Arborfield flooded and the some of my fields have not been dry on the surface since that date.

                            There's gotta be a ****in wall that keeps the moisture from reaching us lately....Did Trump build a wall, but the wrong kind and in the wrong place?

                              I noticed you never said "took it up a notch" lol.... more like taking it down a notch!

                              We'll survive, but this is kinda hard to take compared to last year!

                              Take care.

                                We are survivors, been here a few times before. That wall is not imaginery Farmaholic, it is historic and despised.
