We start in early May and usually finish up in September, depending on the weather. Jim counts on about every 3-4 weeks.

It means Fall is around the corner. Just looking at the picture of Jim way up there makes my stomach flip flop. I am amazed at how many hay cuttings you get. The puppies are adorable.

I've been "preaching" all summer at Randy, reminding him to slow down at corners where the corn blocks the intersection view. Now that the corn is cut, we're back to being able to see a distance down the road. (But he still needs to pay attention!) We got done cutting our corn yesterday. Silage cutting will come later this fall. <br /><br />We sometimes get 4 cuttings of alfalfa, but this year, we'll likely only get 3 because we were slowed down in June and July by rain. <br /><br />I am ready for fall temperatures.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030884632849692028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749684475391974742.post-74376352891391430212016-09-12T22:09:02.873-04:002016-09-12T22:09:02.873-04:00The pups are cute! 5th cutting?

I wormed my kittens before we went on our trip and when I got back I could see a big growth spurt. <br /><br />Good Luck with corn chopping. The corn and sunflowers are starting to turn in our area. We have one neighbor that swathed and baled his corn crop. I'm guessing due to the drought that was his best option. <br /><br />5th cutting hay! Dad gets a 4th cutting of alfalfa and that is under a pivot. Hope all goes well with your last cutting of hay. <br /><br />Sunday we saw a high of 87* today 59*. Sounds like we are in for a few crisp mornings, which is good for preconditioning calves. The radio called for frost warnings in North Dakota tonight.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488038248488005011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749684475391974742.post-77510397039624368362016-09-12T20:19:40.264-04:002016-09-12T20:19:40.264-04:00your view is opening up and hopefully your world w...your view is opening up and hopefully your world will cool down a bit. wonderful, sweet pups...TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.com
