A major breakdown or too much rain. At least with a breakdown you can go like 60 when it's fixed and catch up. Sitting here with the sun shining waiting for the mud to dry up as one of the most frustrating things in the world.
I just got the field cultivator over the other half of the only field where I have any corn planted at all. Still can't get down along a little bit of one side,but it's not something where I'll have to fill in a spot in the middle of the field. If seed wasn't so expensive,I'd have torn up the rest and replanted it. It's coming alright,but it was sod and the grass is coming on. Not to mention it being a little rough compared to what I just ran over. I'll have to make up part of a tank of Roundup to spray that half of the field now. Just one more time eating bunch of nonsense.
There's another 22 acre field on another 40 that I own that my uncle used to own. It's low in the south east corner. When he had it,he worked it as two ten acre fields east and west along the north half,a square ten acre field on the south west corner and then had that wet corner as a separate field. Another guy owned it for a while and took the fencerows out so he could work the whole thing north and south. If I can't get in that south end by Friday,I'm going to plant the north side east and west and get the low south side when I can. This is just getting to be more than I can stand.
All of my silage corn ground still has water standing,so no sense even getting all bent out of shape on that.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
