Momentarily Out

Posted by on May 24, 2011

We unplugged counted to ten, fifteen, twenty, heck, a hundred even and then plugged back in the router to the electrical outlet.  No avail.  For a couple of days our internet has been off. 

Not that you would necessarily notice Dear Reader.  I have been trying to incorporate the whole blogging thing and keeping up at least the main farm blog with the whole new schedule lately.  But there you go, story of my life, there is always something that throws me off the train.

It continues to rain here, yes, we have had several beautiful sunny days, some unexpected ones even, but not any where near enough to evaporate the four plus extra inches of rain we have received this year on top of the three extra inches we received in December.  Seven extra inches of rain, plus new housing development, plus the neighbors five acre woodlot completely harvested three – four years ago and you have one soggy farmer who sits in a small basin. 

But I try not to complain too hard, being in the small local basin is rough in wet years but a bonus in dry ones and a big bonus in the soil department as we have the only decent un-rocky soil in the area.

I’ll be back soon.  But for now there is no rain so it is foliar feeding day in the Market Garden….

    We are cold and wet here too..and the skeeters are going to be as big as birds if it keeps raining. We have mainly sandy soil..it drains fast. I hope the warmth of summer sunshine finds you:)

    Oh, Lanny, I hope the sun returns to help get you all dried out there sometime soon. Sorry to hear you’ve been without internet. It can be so frustrating sometimes dealing with computers and technology. When things are working, they are wonderful. When they’re not working, it can be maddening.

    Sure do hear you. I always enjoy a break from the ‘Net, but I like better when I can choose the break! Take care.

    We and my parents too, have been having internet problems the past week. My folks went out all together for a day or so.
    I enjoyed the post above this one very much. Good writings!
