Being on the cusp of seeding, we needed to keep ourselves busy which honestly, that’s not that difficult. We took the rock rake (a tool that rakes all the rocks into a convenient row for the rock picker to pick up), the rock picker and the cultivator to Picklers quarter to clean up a line fence we demolitioned last year. It’s always great to get projects like that done before we start seeding as once we’re in that mode, these odd jobs are hard to tackle. And the good news is we can now seed that area now. I was bugging Lance that he loves to pull superbee grain trailers so this was him with 2 units behind the John Deere 6140 hauling everything home.

I heavy harrowed 40 acres before the rain and hail started, which coincidently started just as Lance was reaching the field with the drill to start seeding field peas. Disappointing but we didn’t end up with much rain so we’re ready to start mid-day tomorrow hopefully. Walking to the road for Lance to pick me up after the rain, this miraculous sight in the sky sucked most of my IPhone battery. Tonight I spent the evening trenching water by hand on Picklers enjoying the peace and quiet before the storm (which is to say seeding).
