[QUOTE="Richardin52, post: 1033269, member: 18391"] Baled 66 round bales two weeks ago in the first three day stretch after the grass was up with no rain this year. It has rained every day since then. I'm not talking a little drizzle either. We have had a couple spells where we got an inch an hour most of the time it's been just a steady downpour. Yesterday it did just sprinkled in the morning but then it poured all evening. This morning it's a steady down pour again. The forecast rain, rain, rain humidity in the 70's, temp in the 80's in other words hot and sticky with rain. Started harvesting broccoli last week, about two thirds of the heads were rotted right on the plant, just too wet. Pastures are too wet for the cattle, can't move the round bales because the fields are too wet. The years half gone and we haven't had 5 days in a row of descent weather yet. Their talking about building a pipeline for oil down from Canada down to the gulf, Maybe they should be talking about a pipeline for water from the northeast to the southwest, they can start at my place.
