As we enter the second week of June we are very happy with the amount of work we have completed. We only have 2-3 days of corn spraying left and then 2 days for our beans. They are calling for heavy rain here on Tuesday so hopefully we will miss the heavy amounts. We barely missed some bad storms here this past weekend with tornadoes touching down and heavy rain about 10 miles north of here. It is hard to believe, but some of my first planted corn is already chest high means tassels should be out before the end of June. We have also been busy with Andy Bedolli and his tiling machine. We have been working on a couple of tiling projects while the ground is decent shape. Installing new tile is a fascinating process. It is amazing to see how the water runs into the tile as soon as it is put into the ground. Even more amazing is finding old tile that was installed decades ago by horses or dug in by hand that is working good today.
