We are in FULL on panic mode people. Planting started 2 weeks ago & it has rained off & on ever since. The boys have around 170 acres planted. The tractor has just been sitting behind the house...waiting...and fear is starting to set in. "We're getting behind..." "We're gonna have to take time off of from our paying jobs..." "The next few weeks are gonna be really bad..." And just in case you are wondering - no...every other farmer is NOT behind because of the rain... [insert sarcasm].
But the corn has already started to come up. It's little & tiny, but it's there. (and I might add I didn't even know it had sprouted until Brad said, "The corn is already starting to come up @ the house. Man, he's on top of thangs!)
And 'round here, I don't allow ANYONE to curse the rain. You NEVER, EVER curse rain. Sure, it's depressing. But if ya curse the rain, maybe, just maybe, there won't be any this summer. And that's definately not a good thing.
So if you can drive a tractor, call me. You're hired. Heck, even if ya can't drive a tractor, we'll train ya. We're not picky.
And of course, I had to include pics of the kids checkin' out what the heck I was doing walking around in the squishy, sloppy field.
