And The Rains Came

Well, I'm back.  We managed to get 130 acres of corn planted before the rain, which is approximately 1/3 of our total corn acreage.  Hopefully the delay won't be too long, as we've planted half of the field we were in when the rain came, and have planted all of the end rows. 

One thing to note, while Beck's may package their seed in water-resistant sacks, the paper tape used to close the bag isn't water resistant, and at the other end of the bag, where it is sown closed, water gets into the thread holes and softens the bag there, also.  That is your public service announcement for the day.
