We had 2.10 inches of rain this weekend. From your photo today, I don't think you did, so I will join Phil in hoping you are "one day closer to rain!"

I think we all need a resident optimist during tough times. Did you see mine yesterday kicking up dust. I said "dreaming of rain" and he said "no, we are another day closer to rain"... which is a much nicer way of viewing it. Hope we both get our rains real soon.CountryMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14761724941259576940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-746965660860204993.post-80337919295732453112016-04-15T17:28:12.945-05:002016-04-15T17:28:12.945-05:00I talk to my TV about it.

Back then, much of Kansas was colored red on the drought map. I hope we don't return to that! Chances for rain look good this weekend. I hope they are right.

Before we ran out of the little bit of hay we had left because we were feeding in the summer because of no pasture we decided to cut our losses and sold more than half our herd. It was a difficult decision and I still think about it. The prices were bad but we had no choice, we were not alone. Too many sellers and very few buyers.. I do hope you get your rain Kim there are a lot of farmers who know exactly what this feels like. I never did like golf:) Take care.
