Little cooler today, and temperatures were under control. Pedal to the metal farming - but it"s done. Still have to spread fertilizer, but that"s a little less frantic, I can do that over the next few days, if it doesn"t rain.

Tractor I use for that has so light a footprint that I can float right over the field. But it"s done on March 22nd, WOW!
