With my tendancy to get long winded and such I thought Id break this into a seperate journal. JAE has been bussier than a puppy with 3 p-... er tails. We finally have gotten most of the dry fertilizer on, with about 80,000 acres and 4000 ton between 3 machines. not to bad for 4 months work with the weather we had to contend with. So with the dry slowing down we turned to wheat spraying, wich was kind of slow untill it started raining and weeds started springin up. We took the spreader off the 8103 and put the liquid system on. we also took the time to put new back tires on while we had it in the shop. The rest of the company waiting on the rain to stop. I swear, if it aint the rain its been the wind this year. Its been real hard to stay ahead. With 5 machines I had hoped for better numbers, and with the wheat getting to big Im afraid were about done with the wheat, but we have just under 40,000 acs under our belt. We've also got started running burn downs in front of planters. Thats all for now, hopefully the weather gives us a break and we can really start turning the wheels. Thanks for lookin, Dustin

thanks fellas. Yeah, Clayton this country is going to go nuts if it ever drys up. There forecasting rain for the next few days and with it as wet as it already is if it doesnt warm up it'll be 2 weeks before we can realy get rollin. That would be a nightmare. We're already about a week behind on beans.
