Allan's hay crop

[Anonymous-0]

Allan how is the wet hay crop comming? Has it dried enough to turn it? My dad had to do that a few times while he was raising hay. I don't think we got the rain you do. Will you be able to save it? Maybe you can try the plow again on the other field. Stan

I dunno,

It is gonna be touch and go.

Been in the field off and on since 5am pulling the wet soggy stuff up out of the mud. What alfalfa is left I can get in the morning when the dew is down.

Now however, I'm racin' against time because the wheat hay is turning to straw before I can get the baler to it.

But, I had to stop and come to the house to do my computer chores that pay the bills around here. :>)

Hey Allan, why not buy a chopper and forage wagon and throw that stuff in a ground bunk for winter feed?

I've only got $13 left to my name. We own a corral full of horses, ya know. :>)

HI Allan;
When I started out selling machinery to farmers, my boss said "if you drive up to a farm and see"
1 - horse = check with order
2 - horses = cash with order
3 or more = turn around and drive away
Was he correct?

Good luck with your forage salvaging

Cheers David

He's right.

I've got six of the buggers and I do notice that folks just drive right on by. :>)

Allan: It's this great big area of high pressure that's been sitting right on top of my fields for the last two and a half weeks that's giving you all the rain. You should be in the clear by next Tuesday, if that helps any. Cheers.

Hey Allan, maybe it"s none of my business but I"ve always been curious what kind of business you run? Is it an ISP or hosting service? I do computer work from home now and have toyed with the idea of doing some web hosting but it"s a 24/7 thing and I do like to slip out of the office once in awhile.

We do private client contracting.

We don't own this business; it owns us. Just like miking cows without the phooie. :>(
