True enough. I dont mind the temps as I like winter better than the heat of summer anyway, but crops and gardens arent growing and I spect they wont until we get some sun and heat!

I'll take the cool weather as long as I can, I dont like the heat. I am still thinking we are gonna get another snow.

I was gonna but way too busy, logs are still in the kiln, taking much longer since kiln is only big enough for half the logs. Good thing is they should be done in another week. But back to steve as I was walking into the local store up there I saw a flyer for steve foss guided fishing trips. Looks like the guy can catch a mighty fish, I will be contacting him for a fishing trip.
Thanks Matt, I have a feeling it would be your kind of thing.

Hopefully not until November. This may be a year without a summer.
Hamburger should get cheaper soon. Last year my dairy buddies were getting ready to cut hay the second time, this year if it doesn't rain all week, they may cut first crop.
Not to mention they have about 1/3 of the corn planted, and none is at the three leaf stage. And there won't be any more planted this week, if at all, it's still too wet.
Quite a few guys east of here lost their alfalfa crop to the January rain, it froze it off or whatever, so feed looks to be in short supply here.

I think we got about 20% of the corn acres in this year that was planned...
Everyone's thinking beans now...:msp_unsure:
If its still too wet, milo is always a possibility...

There's a chance my ground will go "prevented planting" - kinda chaps my butt, since my sand dunes are pretty easy to get into after a rain, but my renter is trying to get the bigger fields, most a bit higher yeilding, planted first. It's cash rent though, so as long as I get paid, I really don't have a vested interest in how he does it.
A couple more years of renting it out, and I hope to be back to where I have enough vacation time to run it myself again (and still have time left over for a little fun). Probably concentrate on hay though, and leave the row crops to the big guys.

We can shoot for that also, if it isn't raining or snowing!
But I still plan on being at Dreamers in Grantsburg tonight.

MMM chicken wings!!! Just got home from a excellent time out dining with me, Sarah, Jon, and Angie. All you can eat chicken wings. We are going to be doing a fish fry at mine and Sarahs house in Harris next Wednesday night. Who is all going to make it? Angie gave us some panfish and I will try to get some Northerns before then, (shouldn't be to hard they have been biting like mad). Feel free to bring a saw if you wish, I always have something to cut on. Its nice doing a little mid week GTG, seems to make the work week go by faster.

Hey Iowans - try to have some sunshine and a little warmth for me and my friends this weekend. Should be rolling into Iowa Speedway about this time tomorrow.
The forecast looks good tomorrow, but gets iffy Saturday and Sunday. Oh, well - we will just hope for the best and pack the raingear.
