Did y'all get it up? They screw me at least once a year with this one. Got me this spring the same way. I have about 100 acres that needs cut but between the random showers and storms and the humidity above 50% I don't see any way of getting it dry 90 degrees or not.
I have to confess I got most of it up, but had to sin a little. Sunday was a supper drying day, so that evening the son was home with his church clothes on and dress shoes, so I put him on the rake tractor. I baled until dark 30 and the next day (Monday yesterday) I was by myself and it started out foggy, as I live on the river, but got started as early as possible. I was going to town and at about 3:30pm the sky opened up (rained like pouring out of a boot with wind that about destroyed my tomato plants.) I lacked about 4 acres getting it up and, it was some nice hay left, as loaded with Johnson grass as thick as the hair on a dogs back.
I try to not work on Sunday, but sometimes the ox is in the ditch. Use to have a neighbor who was a 7 day Adventist and if he did not do nothing the rest of the week on Sunday he made sure to be seen working.
The monsoon looks to continue the rest of the week so what is left is gone.
