Drought

Thought I would update on what has been happening here on the farm. Where are farm is loacated here in Michigan has been in a severe drought. It seems like when it rains it all goes north or South. We have at least 30 acres of corn that will have no corn and not sure about the rest of the crops yet. We did get a first and second cutting of hay. Third cutting was not good. With no rain doubt we will get anymore cuttings. We harvested our wheat as you know and that was a good harvest. We took 15 cows to town a week ago. We are trying to make sure we are going to have enough feed to get through the winter. Well I think that about covers it just keep praying for rain as we still need it.

Our summer is going by so fast! We only have four weeks till the kids go to fair. I have been making lots of soap for the farmers market. We baled lots of straw and we have a new addition to the house as you can see my niece is rocking him in the doll cradle. His name is Ashton and he is just the sweetest little cat. We are in a drought here and if we do not get rain soon our crops will be pretty much a loss. Hope all is well with everyone in blog land. I look foward to visiting some blogs once winter comes and my time frees up some.
