    Glad to see it is happening! Great weather we are having to do it in. Just think how happy you will be when it is all done.

    Glad you are started. I hope conditions are better there than here. Our next neighbor is pulling the trucks under the digger and out of the field. The one north is just unloading on the ends and the trucks leave the field with NO beets showing over the box. You can see water stand in the rows where they have dug. A friend north at the county line was stuck yesterday in the field but had loaded one truck which he decided to deliver himself. Slid off the piler and ruined a $500 tire. Trying times to say the least.

    We are spreading manure, plowing and raking hay. bonnie

    Linn - you know that I can’t wait. . .

    Bonnie - I love the partimers who tell you that they enjoy farming because it is such a challenge. Especially when they don’t have to depend on it for their income.

    Jough - I like the smell of them processing!

    Bonita - Thanks - it looks good - but it’s old & tired, too. . .
