A short half inch of rain overnight, and this morning. It looks like Wednesday at the soonest before the combine can run again.
How's your weather?
Got nearly 2" yesterday.... It just will not STOP raining... We got done chopping corn last Friday afternoon at 1:30 pm.. ALL DAY we had to pull wagons out of the field with a puller tractor.. Only about 4-5 loads got out on their own.. One wagon was in such slime that the puller couldn't move it either.. I tried with the chopper and got bupkis.
So we put the puller in the middle, with me in the chopper in lead and, now with THREE machines, we finally got that load outta the field.. Two loads I filled I had the tractor 2' from the back of the chopper on a short chain so I could literally help pull him around the field to get filled...
This particular field is always the last one to be chopped every year - and every year it's just a swamp over the northern half.. I have a new nickname for this piece of land; "The Waterpark"...
