Sorry to hear about the bad luck there Brad. I haven't had really bad weather, the rains have been nice. I have been having a lot of bad luck with putting up hay, and my wheat got hailed to crap, but still had to harvest it, all 30 some bushels/acre. Our usual average is in the upper 60's to 80bu/a. Hope it turns around for you. Old saying is that the reason the Lord takes something good out of our hands is so he can put something better there. Hope it's true for you. Cool

Come on up to Sturgis and bring the mud truck and we'll sit around and tell lies and have fun for a couple of days. Very Happy

105 today and no rain in sight. When we get rain, it lasts for 3 minutes, and turns the place into a tropical jungle. I'm in the house drinking beer and watching movies. I guess it is a good thing I'm on my 7 day break......... Laughing


I work 12's.....
