At least the corn crops should be doing good

WOW! Will it ever quit raining in Indiana on weekends this summer? I can't believe it's raining again.

Jimmie, absolutley amazing how much, and often we get rain, but if you'll look at next week's extended forecast, it's a repeat, it's not unusual to lose the first planting, or at least part of it, then it'll dry up, and get harder then hammered Hell, and in less than a week, you'll swear it hasn't rained in a couple of month's. Some years we're lucky to get half our schedule in, I remember in 1991, when I got my first TQ, I thought we'd never get our first race in, I pulled to Danville, Ill, 3 times before we finally got that race in, then it was dry and slick, even 2 days after a big rain. Looks like we might be outa luck for tonight, but haven't heard anything yet, we've had plenty here, but we'll wait and see. Maybe I'll be ready next week!
