Needed Rain.

We have received some well needed rain this month. Today we received 1.59" bringing the monthly total up to 4.75"

When this month started I didn't really think that we were going to get enough rain to keep the soy beans alive but now I am wondering if we have gotten to much rain and killed the little plants, the larger plants will be fine but there are a few fields that were planted only a week ago and the plants are less that 2" tall, this much rain on that small of a plant isn't good and its to late to replant any acreage that may have been lost. Only time will tell.

Until next time.

BTW talked to our son he will be home from Iraq by September 15th! Were all looking forward to having him back state side, and it will be even better in May of 2010 when he will be stationed in the lower 48, Alaska is a long drive or flight and there is never enough time for a good visit.
