rain

[keh]

I have been off the net, computer gave up, just got a new one. I see everyone behaved while I was off.

I have been complaining about drought here. The remains of hurricane Fay brought us about 4 inches. Grass is green and I have hopes of getting a decent Fall crop of hay. Hurricane Gustave(sp) has done nothing for us. Hope the people in its path came out ok. The next hurricane is supposed to come up the SE coast by the end of the week. The SC governor is keeping emergency workers here instead of letting them go to LA because of the possible hurricane hitting here. Hope it stays a tropical storm and just brings us rain.

yeah, I've got my eye on these storms, am certainly glad that those in more vulnerable places than us, did ok so far. The weather finally broke here, been sunny and dry practically for 3 weeks now, those who managaged to get their first cut in, no matter what it came out like, sure must have been glad to get it off the field, as the 2nd cut I have seen here has been awesome.

I've got a 100 x 200 patch turned over, had no time to disc it, lime, seed and cultipack, ( farmer left his brillion by our field) couple of passes and I'll have a really nice clover patch in front of my stand, just never enough time in a day though, even for a drop in the bucket size patch, but busy means $$$, so cannot complain, sure would be perfect timing to get it in before the storms hit, we always get soaking rains from these if the track up by us, lot of them in the past were all day soakers.

we need rain. Bad.

I plowed up the field for wheat, and am dealing with the dryness now. Disk pretty much rides over everything.

Rain is supposed to come thursday, and when it comes its gonna come. Im wondering if i should hook up the tiller and get the wheat in, or if i should wait for the rain to moisten everything up and go in after it. What do you think???

We need rain bad, everything is burning up. Hopefully we will get some to help the beans out but corn is about a lost cause.

"We need rain" where do you live it would be nice to see where you live. Easy to say whereabouts you are located.

Get that seed in before the rain comes. Fertilizer too.

Sow in dry ground and wait for a rain.
