Rain Needed

Monday, July 25, 2022

Hello friends,

Sixty miles doesn’t seem like all that much distance, except it can separate vastly different weather patterns. We got about a quarter inch of rain overnight and then watched the radar in jealousy as the massive green area camped out to our north. There were cooler temperatures for sure, but sunshine and blue sky most of the day. So, we still need rain and are really hoping the forecast comes through for us as there are more chances coming!

Thirty big round hay bales are now scattered around the pasture, waiting to be moved to the storage area near the creamery. It was about the amount of hay we were expecting, but the grass that has been cut is all brown and dormant now. The dry heat from last week really sucked all the moisture out of it. Again, some rain would be really timely....
