@sunfish are you still forging?

What’s going on in OKC ??

The OKC Thunder won the NBA championship last night

OKC Thunder, Thunderstruck, THUNDER----THUNDER....Get it?

We don't have professional football, baseball, hockey, soccer, etc. It is kind of a big thing for OK. A couple years ago they were thinking of selling the team and moving it to another state.

 

[JimBear]

I see.

I am not a big pumpkin pounder fan.


Good for Oklahoma & OKC, at least one of the coast teams didn’t win.

I was surprised by all the wheat down in your neck of the woods, when we passed thru there.

Nothing wrong with any of that equipment if it works for the farm it’s on.

My nephew was running a combine on the wheat harvest in Oklahoma & said he rain an armadillo into the feeder house. He said things stopped pretty quickly. Lol

Yea around here there are a lot of guys that won’t plant wheat. I had to for a rotation year for alfalfa. Gonna try to get some straw bales off of it also. The ole gleaner did pretty good but doesn’t much care for green stuff. If it was weed free it would be just perfect for the 47 acres on the farm.

Back in 1976 I ran a Gleaner L combine. Learned how to put a 22 foot header through a 10 foot gate. (Very carefully) Started just over the Kansas Oklahoma line and took a bus home, to Kansas City, from Minot North Dakota. Best damn summer I ever spent.

My son loved the summer he spent on the wheat harvest. Texas - Montana. I believe they even harvested some corn as well. They were based out of Scott City.

Just a bit over 1” in the gauge, guessers are saying good chance of rain most of the week.

Morning all. 72° starting of the day. Don't know what it is supposed to get to, can't worry about it too much since I am in it all day anyway. Need another week of dry to finish some hay.

 

[Workshop]

Morning everybody.

 

[Sawdust Man]

Good morning.

72/93.....just miserable.....glad we're working inside.

Tom wired up the panel yesterday.

 

[JimBear]

Looks like about 3” or so in the gauge, reports of up to 7” here overnight.

Flood warnings out for 6 counties.

 

[Lurch]

Wow. OCD?

Keep the water up there, we're all full up....heard someone say this has been the wettest spring on record for our area.
Seems like you guys have missed out on a lot of the water so far?
