Hi Don, I think my weather looks worse than yours.
7-Day Forecast for Latitude 44.44N and Longitude 119.17W

I am so sick of this weather, they said it was the coldest May on record for Grant County. Looks like June is going to be the same. Lakeview was going to have frost this morning! Give me back the 80-90 degree summers please.

One of my "specialitys" is John Deere wheat combines Jack. I go around to different farms this month to get their combines ready for harvest. Around July 15, I'll start the crew up on the neighbors place and spend the next month harvesting his 3,500 acres of wheat and barley.

Yep, yours is worse.........I've lived in eastern oregon for almost 40 years and I cannot ever remember a spring like this one.

As I type this it is 55.9 deg outside. Normal for this time of year is 70's!

Oh well, at least the rain has stopped............

I'm interested in formulating my own grain ration for the goats and chickens to get off the corn a bit
