We're late finishing wheat top dressing, too wet to prep any corn fields and if it doesn't let up soon we'll be lucky to get any hay seed in the ground before May... I know we need it, but I'm ready for a break...
I really hate to do what I am about to do, because it will be very painful for you.

^^^^^^^LOL^^^^^ Sniper. Understand stx, but around here like I said, we got a lot of farmland and it is getting real close to hurt'n. Went town after noon today. It was raining on my way home and all the plowed farmland had standing water. Usually they are planting corn by now down here by this time. Keeps this up they will be planting milo.

My grandpa, who made a living off the cattle market, always said, "Son, never curse the rain. You live in Texas, the day after it rains is nothing more than the first day of the next drought." That's coming from a cattleman that experienced the drought of the 1950's. You better take it whenever you can get it because it may be a long time before you get it again.

T Bone you got it right. Are you south east Texas by chance? N. Texas, just south of Dallas.. Lots of guys up here are scrambling tring to get their corn seed exchanged for milo but the seed co's aren't wanting to do it.. Made some nasty ruts in the field but we finished wheat top dressing this week before this last round of rain hit.. Not gonna be fun to plow that wheat stubble.... Bump... Bump.... Bump....
