[thoffman]

CB,
Those are 15-30's. They were gunmetal grey so I can see you thought on the paint <font size="-2">(Even though they are black and white images)</font>

Things are looking up. Although I still think an extra coat would be in order.

Terry that weather does call for extra clothing. I just found out that I can't go to Rockford. Can't rearange my Dr. appointments. Hope everyone has fun.

The ground is still very wet & frozen in my gardens although the snow we got Saturday is mostly gone now, doesn't look like I'll be plowing for a while, but I hope to get some alfalfa seed planted at the first opportunity. The weather forecast looks poor for plowday on April 4th IHMO.

 

[tschweizer]

We didn't get any moisture this weekend. I won't be able to make any kind of decision until Wed, or possibly even Thurs.

 

[krandall]

THINK POSITIVE......I'm showing up anyhow...Got parts to haul for others......

I was out soil sampling today mapped and grided over 500 acres, the fields carried great a little wet in places this morning, but but awesome considering we got 2-3 inches of snow on saturday nite... plus there was a guy across the fence from me seeding oats today <font size="+2"><font color="000000">whoooooho

</font></font>

[sblunier]

I can roll with whatever decision needs to be made...goodness knows I've plowed in enough mud in my life!!!!!!!

Travis-
Steve just wants to load that shiney new trailer of his to the gills and haul some iron down the road.

Steve-
Are you going to bring the shopping-cart "doodlebug" too?

Oh wait, I said "iron"....

 

[sblunier]

Art,

I would like to drag the new trailer around, but don't need to bury it in the middle of Travis's pasture either...... Let's see what the weatherman brings and hope for the best!!!!!!!!!

BTW, There was some steel of some sort under that plastic shell.....dropped a screw I was trying to use to hold the plastic on and the shop magnet stuck to something under there...never did find what tiny little piece of sheet metal it was sticking to though.......might have been that gum wrapper I lost mulching leaves last fall????

Here are some pics of a few springs ago at Travis's

 

[cgbusch]

can there be plowing if it is sprinkling
or would we get stuck in a hurry?

 

[rpalmer]

Rob, In the picture with the red tractor... is that yellow cub getting ready to "hit it" using a chisel plow???

 

[bbranstetter]

If you watch the video forcast, they are saying the rain is holding till Saturday evening.

Lets hope there right.

No that's not a chisel plow, Chris E's plow is just turned so that the moldboard is perfectly in line with the camera lens......BTW, Big Steve's 782 is right behind him and that 2072 is now in my shed,........

 

[rpalmer]

Mr. Plow, Ka-Ching!! Good for you. Maybe, if all goes well.. I'll be able to attend one of the PD events next year. Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up.

Travis,
How does the river look in downtown Rockford?

 

[mgault]

Travis – looks like the chance of precipitation has increased to 50-70% Saturday depending where you look, are we still a go?

It probably looks the same as it does uptown Rockford.

Up my way, we got 14" of the white stuff the last 2 days. Course I'm close to 400 miles north of Travis too.
