First seeding started here 10 days ago. Extraordinarily dry here. Top 4 to 6 inches has some moisture. Powder dry underneath. Weeds starting to show up. Driving through almost all sloughs even with the sprayer, no ruts. Did I mention +30 here today, sapping up what little moisture there is.

Wind seems relentless here too


Rolling right after seeding to seal up moisture best we can . Worked well the last few years .

Woodland near the Drayton Valley fire?

This is the south side of town. The fire jumped the North Saskatchewan and is in a trailer park and on Main Street. Definitely not what this town needed.
Missed my cousin’s place by a mile yesterday.

This was the smoke from it earlier today from the yard. Now it’s all hazy smoke out west from all the fires.

The Wildwood fire is sitting a half mile from my friends and they’re putting up a good fight. The wind is blowing over trees on the fences, humidity is in the teens, and the temp is 25* definitely an uphill battle. Maybe tomorrow night the weather may break which will be too late for many…………..

Sad times in the neighbourhood……..
