I am hoping that everyone took the time to attend a Remembrance Day Service on Monday to honour all those that have fought for us and are still doing this. It is difficult to complain about the cold day when you think of all that these men and women have […]

November has arrived and, unfortunately, so has some snow. Things ended up getting very busy last week with the cooler temperatures. Combines were running, manure was getting spread and some field work was accomplished. Of course, it is never enough time and we were all hoping and wishing for “just […]
The Rainy River Federation of Agriculture (RRFA) held their annual meeting and entertainment night on Saturday. For those of you who didn’t attend, you missed out on a great night. The group is working hard to update and create it as a fun night out! The had a very quick […]
I cannot believe we are nearing the end of October and I am sure it is simply because we have lost the last two months to the weather. I sure wouldn’t complain if it stayed like the last few days until Christmas or even longer. Wishful thinking. I finally was […]
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 […]
