and the ground soaked it up like a sponge soaking up alchohol. Very nice rain, amazing how it greened everything up.
 
Kinda early for way up there isnt it Chris? I was thinking I am holding off until the 25th here, everything I am planting is 92-98 day, but then I guess they know what they are doing.
 
Theyre also really good at getting ants in their pants : ) We'll see maybe they'll hold off. See what the soil temps do.
 
Since Thursdays night we have had more then 6 inches here in Missouri. Gravel roads and bad or where. Got the first 4 inches in less then 12 hours so it made a mess if things and then another 2 inches yesterday
 
Snowing right now (n/w WI), unneeded rain and wind last last night. We were NOT dry here - was still water standing in some ruts before this all started Sat. night. The wind was the worst - had to make a call to the insurance co. this morning. Barn roof and garage roofs damaged and lots of limbs off trees.
Sorry for the poor pics - using a cell phone camera.

We are dry, I cannot use the tiller on the patch I used the moldboard on last fall, too hard, or so it seems and the dust, we did get some rain last night, will try it tonight, should have gotten it sooner I would bet the higher ground, we have rolling hills for much of the area around here is dry and hard, like in the middle of summer, we've had dry April's before, but since we had no major snow storms or rain events, going to be interesting to see what happens, instinct tells me the rains will be back though, its around 87 deg F mostly clear skies, no rain in the forecast, hay fields might get stunted if this keeps up.
 
Dave we got the same 2.5 here east of Fergus about 20 miles..........guess into got short chnaged, amazing what 90-100 miles can do.
