Looks good Furrow nice to see green again. Lots of guys got going in NW MB the last few days. Lots of moisture and cool days don’t add up to good drying so seeding is slow. Pastures are coming along good and fall seeded crops look good. Gonna need a good summer to get the crop maturity to speed up.

I see a reference to Peavey mart, it would be great if North 40 stores moved across the border from Havre. They’ve got just about everything a farm would need, hydraulics, vet, clothes, guns, tools, fishing gear and general hardware, it’s impressive but no electronics or white wedding dresses for those that care.
Great place to spend a hour but the exchange beats you up.

We finished yesterday. That's the earliest we've ever been done by a wide margin.
Zero rain delays. That's a first.
Still nothing more than a chance of showers in the forecast. We've had a lot of those chances so far without getting anything noteworthy.
Zero wet spots to work around. That's also a first. Although I did manage to get stuck a couple of times, but had to try very hard.
Also unique this year, we were able to get decent pre-seed weed control on quackgrass. Typically waiting for enough growth to get it effective kill is our holdup in the spring.
So far, the frosts haven't been serious enough to cause any problems.
Along with the perfect weather conditions, also came very little trouble with fertilizer building up and plugging. Amazing how much more you get done in a day when you're not constantly dealing with plugs and build up on meters.
Our antique equipment had below average breakdowns. And the help was reliable.
Hardly ever turned the headlights on. Managed to get some sleep every single night
Sounds too good to be true, I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Haven't seen quack here in decades.
Overall we had good luck as well.
A hydraulic issue to hopefully resolve this summer.
Seem to have been bumping my head on hydraulics since 98 when I bought first air seeder.
Guess I should've kept all equipment current with the times lol.
Things some will never know.....
