We finally got enough rain here to get the Sudan pushing up. Ground finally stayed wet for 3 days in a row. Looks like we may be in for some more tonight. Large storm north of Abilene and heading towards us. Praying for more. You can never get enough. Good luck Jim. Jim

The hay and pasture I seeded last month likes it.

Jim, that ol' John Deere was buckin' and spinnin'!
I just got in from finishing up the spring wheat for the year. Weatherman said big storms and they were almost right. Watched a huge, nasty sonuvabitch build this evening and I guess it had ping pong ball hail and 50-90mph wind in places. 2-3" of rain, sounded like a mess.
We didn't get a drop....
Took a few pics and will download later.
Looking at the radar now it looks like C might be in for a doozy......

I am at a lost to why those of you with pig problems don't won't us to kill them ? I understand the part about controlling who's on your land, but Texas fever and making a dime on every dollar, well let the hogs do what hogs do. I know nothing is free in Texas! In my post I said I let folks hunt pigs for free. Jim Where ya at, buddy? Hogs would be some big fun.

My reply to the old minister who asked how the Lord was treating me, not as well as I'd like sir, but maybe better than I deserve.

We had a big storm heading right for us last night. I watched it get within a couple of miles and it sat there and came no closer. Went to bed at 0200 today. Stayed up hoping to hear more rain hitting the roof. Walked outside before bed and got a good sniff of it though. Got up this morning and got 0.08". I will gladly take it but sure wanted more. Jim

Jim About the same thing happened to us. They had some good rain north of us yesterday. Texarkana area got a good soaking and it was heading south..... but it petered out about 5 miles north of us. We didn't get a drop.

For you guys in Montana running mostly dry land crops, I don't understand why you would be digging stuff like that. Run it no-till and let the ground have some mulch so it stays un-hardened. If you're growing some type of crop that can take hard herbicides, then no-till is the way to go.

Are those clouds going back empty for another load, for someone else?

Place up the road just cut the first hay of the year, been about perfect in terms of sun and rain showers the last 3 weeks. I would have waited a bit until we had a week of dry weather ahead, but it's not my hay.

The farm I am working for is done with 1st-cutting alfalfa as of yesterday.
Too dry around here, not much hay, corn and beans already curling up. Not looking good.

It was a doozy Sam. Got hit by that big storm. 2 inches of rain. Water went over roads it’s never in 50 Years. Lost most of my barley field to flood. All the dams were going over the tops. Almost blew out one of our stock ponds. Crops got the hell beat out of them but no hail so should bounce back. Been checking the hay crops last couple days and by golly we got the best hay crop I bet we have had in 6 or 7 years. Need to get crop spraying as weeds are getting big. But fields so wet can’t get in
