[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1048516, member: 20580"] For those of you who pray, we could sure use some prayers for some plentiful rain storms in central Iowa. For a 2nd year in a row now we probably will have to pull the herd from summer pasture this weekend early than usual because the creeks are drying up and may be out of water soon so will have to move them back to the main farm where they have a pond and waterers. Last year we had to move them just after the 4th of July. The grass has held up pretty well due to the wet spring we had but we probably have not seen much over an inch of rain in 2 months now so unfortunately we will have to start grazing pasture that we save for the fall which means feeding hay sooner than normal and with 2 dry summers in a row now our hay inventory is pretty thin without going out and buying more. Very frustrating, our family has been on this farm over 30 years and never have we run out of water in the creeks during the summer before last year and this year. [/QUOTE]
