Rain! We finally got our rain!!
Not within recent memory has a rain been so welcome (and such a long time coming!)…most definitely an answer to many prayers!
The question we are hearing over and over now is, “So, has the rain helped?”
Our answer – a resounding “YES“…but…(you know there’s always a “but”)…whether it came in time to make the difference to the field crops (grain corn, soybeans, etc.) time will tell.
Robert has taken to answering that question somewhat guardedly.
“We’ll let you know in December.” he says.
As for the moment, we’ll take whatever moisture that comes, whenever it comes. The rest of the hay will get finished when it gets finished. We continue to enjoy the wonderful colours, scents and tastes on the sales wagon at this – the peak of the fresh vegetable season. And we will look forward to what the rest of the growing season holds in store.
Rest assured…if you drive by on the next rainy day and see us outside, still working away – it’s not that we don’t know enough to come in out of the weather. We’re just out there enjoying the showers…”Singing in the Rain”!
