That`s great, around here there doesn`t seem that much done yet but I imagine by the weekend dust will be flying. Is it fairly dry there too?

Havent talked to my dad in a few now, but he is probably about the same. Last time I talked to him conditions were pretty good out there.

So far I havent heard about any downtime here either, which is always nice!

Finished yesterday afternoon. Everything went smoothly, seeding conditions where very good. For down time we had two hydraulic hoses spring a leak and a flat on the fertilizer truck and that was it, only lost a few hours of seeding time.

Good job!!
We have been experiencing some logistic problems with nh3 deliveries. Its not the local distribution but rather the deliveries into the plant. All 3 dealers here have been out with empty bullets!
