We finally have some corn planted! Hubby is spraying w/ his new toy & wheat all top-dressed.
Before we know it we'll be chopping hay. Busy time of the year w/ hubby putting in about 14 hour days. Good time I have woody & cows because I can go a week without seeing another person!
Might have posted these already.

they said on the radio that MO was in a critical state by being so behind.

Got two inches last night in SW Mo and more on the way.  Doesn't look like anyone is going to be in the field for a while.  Was in KC yesterday and although they are not as we are we are they are still plenty wet.  Friends of mine said that the ground temp as of this past weekend was not warm enough :'(  There was water standing on the tops of hills this yesterday before this last round of rain.  Can anyone say short season!

Did anyone read that there are already food riots in some of the third world countries?  Sams is limiting purchases of rice and Costco was limiting purchases of flour and some cooking oils.
