Farming Activity

Weather is beautiful today, so I could not resist taking a short drive around the countryside to see what is going on in the farming world.  I saw several trucks and a gravity wagon that looked like they were hauling grain, but there was no waiting at the Witt elevator. 
Near the end of my trip I found someone loading grain onto a truck.  The Truck is partially hidden behind the trees, but you can see the corn coming out of the auger if you look closely. 
The ground is very wet with lots of water standing.  Several of us were speculating last night on when we might be able to start soil sampling and when farmers might be able to start field work.  I am optimistic because of no rain in the forecast.
