Not good when you have to go out and work in that. Seems early for that much snow? What are your temps?

We just 4" of snow yesterday and suppose to possibly get more sat and sun. The 4" we just got is the 2nd round of snow

I plead the fifth.

Only in Algoreland.

chaskaduo  you come up with a good one  but then you go shameless and want us to see you in your unmentionables. 

And then, there's the algore theme song:

Down stream from Oakridge Tennessee

ya'll can thank me later!

Reminds me of a news cast from MANY years ago,,,,,,,,,,was a gal on the (I THINK) Mabel, MN news at noon.  She gives the stories for the day and then announces that Chet (Name changed to protect the innocent) is standing by with the weather.  He says; "More snow in the forecast",,,  She jumps in and asks him first thing,,,,,,,"Where's that six inches you promised me last night?"   (laughter in the background and then,,,,,,,cut away to commercial)...

No, I am slower than the big green farmers. Wyatt is actually the man in charge of the harvest. He got one semi load done, and the moisture was 18.2. Took it straight to the ethanol plant. 18 is kind of there cutoff point, but they did take that load. Might have helped that Wyatt knows the guy in the scale house quite well. It hasn't done anything but rain and snow since, so I don't think the moisture has dropped. Kind of have a precarious situation, too, with the two fields he started on. Every bushel off of these two fields (100 acres) has to be ferried out in the grain cart through a creek crossing that we can't take the semi through. Anyhow, thanks to some pretty white stuff, it's been a struggle with even the tractor and grain cart. Only 400 bushel cart with the 8070 FWA on it, and it spins out coming up out of this creek crossing. He ended up only putting one dump at a time on the cart to even make it work. But now with 6 inches of new snow, it'll open up a whole new can of worms. He had hauled a couple loads of scoria (the red rock around here that we surface county roads with) onto it, and that helped, but now that is all covered up again too. And the "up and out" side of the creek crossing is on the south side, thus a north facing slope, so it doesn't get a direct hit of sunlight to thaw it out. We are thinking about putting the 8550 onto the cart, but I don't think that'll be any better. Maybe a little less snow would be the answer. Darrel

We got 18 inches of snow back on the 10 of October. It took three weeks of our Indian summer to dry out enough to to start harvesting again. Most guys got beans and corn off but still many beans and almost all the sunflowers left.sunflowers can be harvested after solid freeze up you just can't till after.we still have pintos and soys in the field. They're goners and will make spring tilling tougher.
