Love The Sticky Mud

Dick L · Mar 8, 2015

Love the sticky mud in March. The kind that holds on to your boots and makes a slurping noise every step. Love it in March as you know that it will soon dry out.

^D Sure glad I have my walker cart far enough along so I don't have to try to carry water in this goo glue. Son Inlaw brought a load of big rounds and backed out in the yard. Good thing the frost is not out or I would have had a truck to mow around. Tracks were only about two inches deep.

I worked calves and weaned today. If all of the bawling wasn't bad enough I had to stop at every fence I could find and scrape off 10 pounds of mud. I'm pretty sure there's another 10 pounds in the chore pickup stuck to the clutch pedal. Fast forward to June if you will.

Around here spring mud is slimy slippery goo. Don't really stick, but everything sinks in (sometimes to far) and never have traction if trying to do anything. The mud has water coming in from all directions. I also think that there is a spring under one drive way March into May, no rain or snow melt and it still has a running flow.

Heavy rain mud (in late Spring through early winter) on the other hand is the sticky stuff that grows on boots. The stuff that by the time you get to where you need to go and back your 5inches taller.

Guys are coming to put the final touches on the barn tomorrow. The "road" they plowed across that bean field is likely down to soil after today. Should be interesting as that is some deep soil. Maybe they will have enough frost to drive on, but personally? I will be parking at the gate and walking in.

First day above freezing in SD for a while Got the Woods Brush Bull on the 95 and knocked down 10 acres of old food plots and lots of foxtail before 1000 hrs. I was on ice most of the time. It got to 64 in the pm and I'll bet there is a sea of mud out there now.
Don't you love it when plan A works? Maybe because it is birthday 75. LOL

I got a boot sucked off once sorting cattle in March. We had the cattle in a corner just where we wanted them and we didn't dare flinch or we would lose them and the boot sucked off. I had to walk around in the cold mud with one stocking foot and one boot till we got them in the barn. I'd forgotten about it till you posted this.
