Another week under the belt, things got done a little more and the weather is warming up today and is supposed to be down right warm tomorrow. Just in time for the annual church picnic! So, that’s where we’ll be after services tomorrow, although I’m still trying to figure out how this farm [...]
Even though it’s only Friday the week is wrapping up here, tomorrow should not be all to busy unless some critter decides to make it so for us. But today consisted of a dozen different jobs, mostly putting away stuff for the season and by mid afternoon I had time to go out [...]
Monday in the north country and it’s drying out a bit after our three day rain. We had almost three inches of rain out of that system, very welcome rain, charged up the soil a bit for over wintering grasses and hays. Looks like they’ll be in good shape to go into [...]

The corn ranges from poor to excellent, depending if the soil could hold on to some moister during this summer’s heat and drought. It’s cooler here the [...]
