We have a chance for storms tomorrow and the next. Hope to rehydrate the ground.

Got a little more here this afternoon. Got a few cows getting out on the road chasing the green up in the ditches. If it's not one problem it's something else.

Can't quite make it out through the paint 2×4?

Yes sir.

I think we could get a 5” rain fast and I don’t think it would even wash out the water gaps.

Lost 2 out of 5 swinging water gates again yesterday, with 1.8" of rain, It all came in less than 30 minutes.

Thank you sir. Everyone thought I was crazy for raising him from a calf rather than buying a bull. I think I did ok.

Here's a Hereford I'm raising too.

He's about 20 months old.

Mine has been doing the same thing for a month. It’s getting very old. I sure hope we get a good rain out of this system. Also hope you concretegrazer, and everyone else that needs a good rain finally get some.

I haven’t had to put any water gaps all year and since June last year. Need big rain, most small ponds same as dry.

I hope you folks get some rain soon.

Holy crap Charlie, you can't catch a break.
Except for one spring, my creek has been bone dry all summer.
Send some of that water our way.

You sir have a good eye for the breeding stock

 

[ajschainsaws]

We where dry until last Friday had some steady rain since , luckily no thunder rain that’ll wash everything away

It’s a problem having too tuck into the winter fodder

I might bore you later with some fodder prices probably when you’ll have gone too sleep

Wish I could, they are calling for more possibly starting Friday again.
