How’s your sub moisture starting out. We were real moist starting out but spots not far away not so much. Patchy downpour Monday wetted our place down so execution staved off for a bit. Hope forecast for next couple days pans out.

With very little rain last year from here and south east the sun soil is marginal at best from here through Hafford .

Many old timers referred to this neighborhood as "next year country"...

In the eighties I started calling it the year after next year.

we were fortunate to catch a shower on just over half our acres here 10 days to 2 weeks ago. many have gotten nothing since the snow left.

The rain lottery is dependent on systems building in Idaho and Montana in our neck of the no woods. It was raining in the back yard and when we looked out the front door, we couldn’t see any. Seriously, that’s how spotty it is.
