    Irrigation water.

    It's that way here also with 39 inches a year.

    Electric Fence Problem - Arching at Ground Rod

    You don't have the hot side going to the ground rod do you? If your hearing a pop at the ground rod you need a better clamp also.

    Marijuana

    Quite frankly, waking up sober was way better than any "buzz".

    Irrigation water.

    Have to see how the rest of the year goes but we are about 2.5 inches ahead of average rainfall for the year. So far, hasn't been overly wet or dry. Had a 5 week dry spell from February to early March but that followed a wet January. Temperatures have been fairly moderate so that helps...

    Hello from Deep East Texas

    Might have to look into that. Or plant some big trees close together. A tree stopped the last one from plowing through the fence.

    Pay day

    Didn't say they weren't selling good....just that it's takes a better than average cow to get a ride home. Having a calf beside doesn't give a mediocre cow a ticket home either.

    Pay day

    Seems nobody wants to take a bred cow home anymore.

    Hello from Deep East Texas

    When I picked up the mail yesterday afternoon, I found someone had hydroplaned through the fence AGAIN.... Third time in 18 months. This is getting ridiculous. Been working on fences a while already and beginning to get tired of it. Now I have more to fix because someone can't keep a...

    Rain

    Rained off and on most of the night. Ended up with an inch total.

    Rain

    First pass fizzled out and missed us. Just a light drizzle. Flash flood watch issued. Formed up a second wave and did the same. Course now they issued a tornado watch. Round three…? Sun breaking through now.

    Bonds have sucked wind for quite a while....

    Rain

    One last hoorah for cool weather I guess... was 76F the other morning at 7 am. This morning it's 51F. High is supposed to be 66F. Haven't been out to see how much rain, but it was a good one.

    Fixed income

    Yeah, Treasury Money Market and Federal Money Market Funds at the Vanguard Group have been yielding over 5% for a while now. Can also set the account up with a checkbook option so it works just as well as any bank interest bearing account. You can do a little better with a Treasury Direct...

    I wanna kill dock, thistle, sorrell..

    Well... I mix like I would for pasture so at the rate of a quart per acre using 20 gallons of water comes to 8 oz. of 2,4-d Amine and 5 gal. of water. :unsure: That would do 1/4 acre...so adjust as needed for your lot size.

    Fun in East Texas

    I guess you are close to an average rainfall total for the last 12 months now?

    Backyard grassers must have come to the sale.

    Ya know, we are all salivating over the prices at the moment. If you take inflation into consideration, the new pricing won't be all that great for long. Right now it's just playing catch up for the last 8 years.

    Close to $2.00 killer bulls

    Had some 7-8 year old at the sale the other day. Though I might pick up a few. Looks like I'm going to have to wait till later in the Summer when all the grass play out and the over grazers sell...
