The weeks continue to slip away. We got 1.3 inches of rain this past weekend. That was the first measurable rain that we have had since during the county fair when we got 3 tenths. The crops have suffered but considering how little rain we have had since June they have held on pretty good. I started therapy again about a month ago because my back has been getting worse since about the 4th of July. Therapy is helping however I'm back to watching that I don't overdue. I probably over did it this spring and that is part of the problem now. Because of this I haven't gotten near as much done in the last month as I was hoping for. Many of the extra summer projects will get pushed off until next summer. The guys have spent a lot of time with repairs in the shop and cleaning cow yards. We also baled straw and 3rd crop hay. I've spent most of my time in the office catching up on things that didn't get done last winter and also working on cashflows, marketing, and related things for 2014. I will end this post with pictures from the last month.

The Baler went over 94,000 bales this year.
It's hard to believe this was our 16th year with this baler.
