Sounded very appropriate, over here, in Nebraska. I resemble the remarks myself, thanks H.

Our cool down was dry also, but it sure makes shop work more comfortable. Some neighbors happy, some grumpy, we're kinda used to it.

He and I have been pecking away at his third cutting, rolled a few this morning. Big clouds with a SW breeze toughened it about 7:15 this evening. He had the rake running, I started to bale. His wife came to rake so both balers could get after it, everyone got about a round done when the...

Our area had one light up Saturday afternoon, kinda took the fun out of setting out front with the neighbors to watch the smoke plume blow up. I saw some video of the one up your way on You Tube. A bunch more rough terrain where that is. Dry lightning fired the one down this way. That's a...

Yep, what H said. Been paying attention would be my guess, fine looking young lady. Nice market lamb to boot. You win showmanship, you are in the driver's seat. Congrats

I remembered your loss when I woke up yesterday. I couldn't remember how long ago, guess it happened on my 44th birthday. I think of it every year, you will always have my kind thoughts and condolences Jody.

It is a shame Webfoot. Haying here is a a hunt and peck process this year so far, at least we're saving money on net wrap. I rolled 14 bales off 8 acres of grass this afternoon but it's just subirrigated. No wet tires in the process. Dry land alfalfa making a bale every 5 acres, irrigated a...

Exactly what Faster said, those cows are slick and the calves are growing. Kinda like ruminants were designed to do...

We haven't had big hail, just the shotgun smaller stuff. Very little wheat or sugar beets left, corn is knocked way back. Some grass hailed flat and turning white just like the wheat, lots of late beans getting planted, the surrounding areas the grass looks good. Grass hay will be a decent...

Yep, very fitting tribute. Any of you remember him talking about a junior high girls basketball game? I still laugh about that analogy!

He made us laugh at ourselves, cause I guess we do funny things once in a while. I remember reading "On the edge of common sense" and Lee Pitts column in the Record Stockman in the '80s. Have two autographed books that will never be for sale.

I don't want to wade into an argument, but as to the original question, my answer is, on the box plan. As in when they close the lid on mine, meanwhile I think I've been retired for a long time.

Same rain leaked into the Nebraska panhandle, around 3 inches here also. Just a good soaking rain we haven't seen since '18. More than last year's total right here. Not a minute too soon, might be too late to help some of the wheat. Doesn't cure the drought but sure will help the grass last...

H, I still have that bronc to saddle. What a fitting tribute. Not a lot of Dad's make 89 and chugging along, I am blessed.

Amen, Webfoot. We are in the country blessed with dry wind and plenty of it, I'm hoping someplace gets enough rain to summer all the pairs that will be sold here. We have avoided fires here locally, so far. Seems like forever since the spring of '19 when we nearly drowned. I keep remembering...
