I mean really, can we not get a break here to get everyones first cutting of hay done? Rain most of June and probably half of July. I would rather have a drought than this, at least I can get some work done if its dry. So much to do and we can't get the opportunity to get it done. I bet ya I've got 1500 acres I need to get over and thats just customers hay, not counting the probably 800 acres of my own.
Will yall all remember us in your prayers for some weather that we can get some dry time to get our work done.
Thanks,
Gary

Most here will be getting last cutting soon and won't get that if the rest of the state doesn't share all the rain. Dry here again with cracks in ground and grass going the other way so you might get more than you wish for. Haven't had but one decent 3 tenth rain on garden since planting. We are ready for some rain to plant wheat on soon as done plowed out moisture fighting weeds.

I wish you could send some of that rain to me in southwestern Minnesota. We haven't had a good rain here since the begining of June. Our corn is not looking good and some beans are turning yellow now. It won't be a very fun harvest here.

I don't know about that. After last years drought, I personally like the weather we have had this summer. If it's any constaltion to you I think your about to get your wish this coming week.

Does your income depend on being able to get in the field and cut rake and bale hay????? ?? Kinda tough to make money when you can't even get to your work.

A lot of my income depends on being able to mow. Has rained every day here for a couple weeks now, sometimes a lot, that is after we had a 10 day dry spell. Wettest and coolest I've ever seen it here.
