Ya give me spring fever with the pictures Don. I think I will try to disc my garden early this week. It's taking a few days to dry out the rain we had last week.
Is that a 1 row New Idea picker back there? I was told about a usable one 3 years ago but the scrap man beat me to it.

Yes Charley it is a new idea picker, She gets to pick one or two wagon loads per year. lol
I think I'll disc up all me corn ground this week and then start looking at planting the week after that. I was at Skyhighballoon's (AKA Mike) farm today and saw lots of farmers planting and that got me going, So to the field I went. lol

I plowed a small piece of garden last week. Sod and three bottoms made my 45 grunt. This year it plowed so much nicer.

Stirring that dirt feels good, doesn't it? Good for the soul.

If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done!

Mike I got the fever after left your place and saw five farmers planting corn on the way home. It got the best of me. LOL The old WD45 pulls my 3-14"s around 8" deep just plays with then in corn ground, Sod makes her grunt a little. The ground turned over is the sign of money to come for me and I don't have to mow it. lol
