<font size="+2">Current Plow Day Situation</font>
Monday the PD field had 1.5" of rain, Tuseday it did not see much sun or wind, today it has been foggy and spitting rain afternoon, light showers this evening, an additional .1" or more of rain as of 9pm.
IF, BIG IF, we see sun and wind on Thursday and Friday, it would probably go, but would be marginal. IF Thursday turns out to be overcast I don't think it will go.
Dad and I discussed it this evening. We will evaluate everything tomorrow night and try to make a preliminary decision to help out the Friday traveling people (this may also be the final decision, depending on tonight and tomorrow).
This is heavy black ground that is covered with bean straw, it retains moisture under the conditions we have had this week and unlike some of the lighter clay/sand mixes in IN, WI, and OH stays "greasy" on top unless it sees sun and wind. We will try and make the best decision possible, but also need to keep from creating a huge mess.
IF we go with the rain date it will be rain/shine and if we can't plow we will have a swap meet/BS session/etc.
Please bare with us as we get this thing worked out.
Steve & "Big Steve"
