[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 250943, member: 2095"] Northeastern Fayette County. I am clearcutting some sweetgum forest and WAS going to plant that and renovate some old fields this fall. Just a simple fescue-ladino clover deal, but this is the dryest I have seen the place in the five years since we bought it. We are taking the skidders to low places where I would not have dared take a truck, the tractor, the dozer, or even my off road golf cart (due to soft ground) back in 2003-2004 when I was building fences and they are not even leaving prints. I will make the decision to go or no go in the first week of August (six weeks for tillage in anticipation of a ~mid Sept planting date); but right now it would look like the Great Dust Bowl after three passes with a disk harrow. We did get some good rain ~Saturday and again Monday; but it is still so dry that both creeks on the place are dry except for stagnant spots and I have a named river on one line that is normally very boatable which I could cross on foot and never have water to knee depth.
