We hauled bales to construct the "bunker" for the silage pile.
I drove the tractor with the mover.
This is the bunker--just waiting for chopped up corn stalks (silage).
There will be no corn to combine this year. The lack of rain has really done a number on the corn crop. All the corn will be chopped for silage and fed to our cows this winter.
The crew will start tomorrow! It is suppose to be a HOT, dry week. I hope we get done with a minimum of break downs. They have already spent 3 days working on the cutter. Hurricane Isaac should be history by the middle of the week and then we'll see what weather comes to Florida for the beach wedding.

Ouch...I'm so sorry that you have been so affected by the drought as a business. I realize that we are all affected by it...because of prices and lack of feed, etc. God's blessings on you and your family! ♥
ReplyDeleteHello Janet,

Hope all goes well with the cutting Janet and the weather is beautiful for your beach wedding.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that the drought has hit you so hard, hopefully thing will be good for the cutting and your daughter will have s glorious wedding day.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a rough summer, hasn't it? Here too. Corn prices are through the roof - wish you had a bumper crop. We are going into the winter with no winter grass and doubt we'll even keep heifers. Still, God's blessings are abundant and praying your girl's wedding overflows with them.
