Life on the Farm
bjrogg:
Wheat is starting to head out. Probably about six to seven weeks till harvest. Still lots of stuff to get ready in the shop, which has been sit aside for now. With my brother still on the DL. My nephew and I have been to busy in the fields to get much shop work done.
Hopefully I can get along in the fields more myself now and my nephew can get some time in the shop.

Yes. Bass .
Pulled a few lunkers out of there. It’s a pretty popular fishing spot. I’m sure it was even back when the native Americans were still here. It’s a shallow flat area. If you watch long enough you will see them jump out of the water for bugs.

All the wheat has been cut here and most have beans planted over the stubble. :) my corn is waste high now and could really use some rain, been a very dry spring here again this year. :-\

Yes we are definitely behind your neighborhood Pappy.
Corn is probably a week behind normal and it’s still pretty cool here yet. Had to find a shirt with sleeves again. You need to have a portable closet around here . You never know what you might get for weather around here.
It’s been a pretty decent spring for rain here. Could use a little rain again, but not serious yet unless you are trying to plant beans in ground that was tilled a few weeks ago. That’s dried out as deep as you worked it.
It looks like it’s going to rain every day. It’s like twilight all day long. I’ve seen raccoons running around four hours before it’s actually twilight. Hope they get those forest fires out soon. I’m sure all my crops are missing out on photosynthesis they need because of all this smoke.
