Odd weather day.

No rain in the forecast early this morning, so I went off to the field.  I got about 5 samples pulled and got sprinkled on.  It looked like the clouds would open up any moment.  The rest of the day pretty much followed that pattern, but looking at radar on my blackberry, I could see showers all around.  I was west of Virden and Girard.  The rain brought this larger operation to a halt.  It was surprising that they quit instead of moving someplace drier.  The drive was like this from Girad to Shipman and then to Hillsboro.  Lots of wet spots and dry spots.  Lots of corn was planted today.  Some soybeans going in too.
