Texas Spring/Summer Thread

[NativeSon]

Drizzled yesterday evening but less than a 1/2 in rain. Did cool off quite a bit today and it looks like the real rain will be tonight and tomorrow. I've been lied to before so I'll believe it when I see it. There is always hope & prayer.

Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. It's raining west and north of us, but is busting up before it gets here.

Looked like it rained in Houston are, for sure in Katy yesterday. I hear nothing at home yet, but much hope for the 7-% chance today and tonight.

Man, the panhandlers are out in the Houston area, been awhile since I had so many people come up to lazy to work. 7 just tonight, when offered $ for labor, they couldn't??? Hate this town, not sure it's even still part of Texas:shocked:

They wouldn't do it if it didn't work. You notice you don't see it in the rural areas, right? That's because it doesn't work where people know you and you know them. The reality is it is a big city job all around the world. It's a business and usually one ran by an organization.

You are lucky .. Just finished the first cut ... BAD .. Good hay just very little ... Just shy of 1 bale (4x5) per acre.

Nothing worse then riding around cutting, raking and baling so little.

We only got .02" yesterday with a total of .07" for July we are getting dry again and the grass has stopped growing and turning brown. Nice cloudy day today.

It's very irritating, after an emphatic "NO", to see your nice clean windshield have dirty water put on it and then wiped off with a sandy squeegee and then the panhandler request you pay for his service. Houston never could control the panhandlers.

Yeah hate to hear that. I know exactly how feels raking several passes to just get windrow. I have been averaging 4 bales an acre(4x5s) this year,been something else to see here. I have made more this year already then have last 3 together and I'm not done. You know if need some I will put back for you,as you would have done for me in past.
