Here is hoping everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend. We had one day with no moisture, but it returned with its ugly face again. Since it started to rain on Aug. 17, we have had 433.5 mm or 17.34 inches. That is the amount that we should receive through our […]

Well, here we are in the second week of October and we are already over the normal amount of rainfall for this month. But, on a brighter note, the sun is shining. It was last evening as well and then we had a thunderstorm. I had to make the executive […]
Today is my 50th birthday! I can honestly say that I can’t believe I am 50. I am so thankful for all that I have learned over these last 50 years, but I still think I am 25, maybe 30! I blame that on hanging around with my summer students […]
I am really hoping that now the first day of fall has arrived that our weather will turn around. The east end of the district missed out on a horrible storm on Friday night. I am hearing reports from three to seven inches of rain in places and it came […]
The middle of September has arrived and if we are lucky, we might even get back in our fields by the end of the week. The forecast has changed a million times, so I have decided to just not check it. We sure need good weather and for so many […]
Okay, I was stressed last week with the weather, so I won’t even tell you how I am feeling this week and with the forecast the way it is now. Honestly, please refrain from telling me: “How great it is to have rain now!” • • • We had another […]

Okay, so we need some good weather. This isn’t funny anymore. I have never had my cereal plots in the field waiting to harvest in September. I am kicking myself that I didn’t come into work over the weekend, but it is hard because I certainly have things to do […]
Here we are–the last week of August! Wishing Lisa Teeple a very happy 60th birthday. On this dreary morning, listening to the weather forecast with the potential of receiving way too much rain, I am questioning whether I should have packed up cows and girls and headed to the Dryden […]
What a weekend! I was really hoping the rain would hold off until the races were over on Saturday night but that didn’t happen! We really wondered what to do for our steer auction and thought hard about setting up inside the barn, but we all looked at our weather […]
Well, I am having a hard time to believe this, but it is the Emo Fall Fair Week! I can honestly say that I have nothing ready–other than the cattle, I guess. I don’t have one entry made! I will be working extra over-time these next couple of days to […]
What an amazing long weekend! The weather was great. I know, I heard a lot of complaints about how hot it was, but haven’t you noticed the cooler evening. Fall is starting to move our way. Another sure sign is the fact the Emo Fair is just two weeks away. […]
