We are still going. When we quit tonight we have 24 acres left to help our neighbor get finished up. The temp climbed to 40 degrees today so the snow started to melt. Just hard to get used to looking out at the corn head and seeing snow.
We ran into some down corn today and our only option is too leave it. The snow will melt and maybe there will be something left to go get. It was about 5 acres.

He is napping by my chair right now, big day for him! bill
