3.15” here yesterday afternoon/overnight, the creeks are milky colored but not really moving much.The dirt road behind the house is dry enough this evening to drive down without picking up on the tires. I didn’t realize we were that dry.

A little before 6 got caught in rain heavy enough that people pulled to the side and my car wood only go half the speed limit. Visibility was short, til I got to destination 20 miles away and got inside mostly dry.
Heard the thunder from my place.... rain was 3 or more miles north. Gotta see if ranch got wet or not

Not yet, but they’re slowly closing..
I hear there may be a little more on the way.
None of it made it to the creeks, so that’s good for the plants, not as good for da fishes.. lol

Those soy beans were planted four weeks ago. 2 inches deep. Most actually came up with the moisture that was in the ground after I had chisel plowed it. Those hearty little buggers have waited all this time for the first drink.

Any of you gents in MO use MFA bar & chain oil? I bought a case to see how I like it. I can’t think it’s any different than the FVP or TractorSupply stuff. It’s on sale for $6.14 gallon, $289 for a 55gallon drum thru the end of August. My Dad & brother use b/c oil in the oilers of the big balers, apparently my brother had been buying it at from his buddy @ NAPA, I told him that there were cheaper places to get it & after some research found out MFA sells it. Now I don’t have to go to Menards or Tractor Supply, It’s a 15 min drive or have it delivered when they bring fuel up for my brother.

I’ve never used their bc oil. I’ve used a lot of their hyd oil. It’s real good. Purple synthetic of some type. You should be good to go with their stuff.

I am sure it will be good stuff, I will have 3 kinds to run a comparison on NAPA $12, FVP $5.25 & MFA $6.14 My brother has always got his farm diesel from MFA and never had any problems. I always liked stopping @ the MFA Card-Trols in MO & NE AR when I would pass thru with the truck. I’ve never had any problems with their diesel.

I can't imagine one bar oil being better than the next, at least not enough to make me want to pay 2-4 times the price of the cheap stuff. I would buy the cheapest stuff I can find. I know thinner oil is better in the winter (especially up north), but if it is that cold (to make a difference in bar oil), you aren't going to find me cutting wood, unless it is a charity cut; and I usually get stuck behind a splitter at those.
