We put out half of ours yesterday. It's too wet to let everyone out or they'll ruin too much ground. But our feeding area was getting abused so we had to do something.
Hopefully prices will be up in the fall to make up for the weather and trade tariffs. China is taking it worse than the US, as painful as it is for some folks we need to get chit straight at some point before it totally screws us.
Looks like logging season will be late this year in the NW. Weight restrictions will be on for some time, and the snow isn’t melting fast at the higher elevations. Most log trucks and crews are still waiting on Mother Nature.

Just opened up the last 580 along the border. Top is really gettin dry. Dust is a flying. Cleaning out air filter every morning. Cows need to get out is right. Ours busted out of feeding pasture into another yesterday. Hopefully wrap this [bleep] up Wednesday.
Good for you, NE CO. I've been watching the weather maps and I don't remember ever seeing such a sustained flow of weather from the southeast, all over the state of Montana. Like straight to the Northwest, which is almost exactly opposite normal rotten weather. I need to give up fossil fuels.

18 inches of snow on the prairie just east of Elbert, 12" in Kiowa and only an inch here in Deer Trail. But with the 1.26" of rain, the wheat gets a drink.....
Wellington, in Sumner Co. Ks 16.9" since May 1st. Most of the rain has come hard, water standing every where. More on the way.What corn that got planted is in danger of drowning out, wheat is starting to show some color, that which didn't get hailed out.Had hail about the size of buckshot the night of the 5th, came in with a 50+ mph north wind at about 10:30 pm, there was still hail in the ditches at 6:45 am the 6th when I left for work.Took the paint off the north side of a lot of buildings. Been kind of a rough patch here.
