I noticed you got the clutch lift on your drill. Do you pick it up at the ends when turning around? When I use to plant my wheat with a clutch lift drill I would just let it drag around at the ends cause it took to much distance for it to lift. I got a JD model B now and it has the hydraulic cylinder.

looks like you got too close to the tree with the muffler.

i'd be glad to send you some rain. weather only had a 20% chance for friday, so i cut hay yesterday and today. Now they are calling for rain tomarrow. Hope i can get some of it baled tomarrow and in the barn. Of course it is idiot cubes and i got to haul it by myself. Walking behind a 16ft utility trailer at that. Guess you can imagine what i have to look forward to.

Nice pictures. I always enjoy seeing fields planted. Your earlier post about how deep to plant reminded me of a story my Dad told of a relative who took over a farm in the Oklahoma panhandle. It was really just pretty much a sand dune. The old timer who had lived there many years said the way to grow wheat on it was to have the field all ready to plant, have the drill filled with seed, have the tractor fueled up and checked over, hooked to the drill and ready to go. Then whenever it would start to rain go out in the rain and start dilling and don't stop until you were done. It turns out that you had to get that jump on getting it up to hold the sand from blowing. If you waited a day or two after the rain the wheat wouldn't get up enough to hold the sand with it dried out.
