I wish we could get a GOOD 7-10 day dry spell. It cleared out wed afternoon, after 2 1/2 inches rain a couple days total. We keep having these "possibility of scattered showers" forecasts. So started cutting Thursday with the forecasts at less than 20% for a whole week. Sat I raked about 10 plus acres of some rough weedy mixed stuff. Last of 1st cutting..... BEAUTIFUL clear crisp day, no humidity, 80* and a great day to be out on the tractor raking.. We planned to bale Sunday afternoon. Full moon Sat night. It got humid and we got some rain Sunday morning. It will all have to be tedded out as it is wet down through the windrows... not soaked but wet enough that I don't think it will dry even if I flip it over. Now there is a chance of scattered showers for the next couple of days. We have 25 acres of sorghum-sudan on the ground that should have been cut 3 weeks ago, and 10 acres of good 2nd cutting orchard grass just cut yesterday (saturday). That's for square bales. And the forecast has said now possible scattered showers Wed. afternoon with showers thursday.... GGGGRRRRRR Trying to be thankful we have plenty of pasture...... but the hay quality is really not that great. And it is more difficult when you have to work "real full-time jobs" and farm around it.... some days I even wonder if it is worth it.
