Kevin...
My heart goes out to you. This is the same system that came through Western WI, Eastern MN, and IA this past weekend.
I hope that everyone stays safe!!

Kevin, I guess it's time to outfit the Cub with pontoons and a paddlewheel off the PTO. Shouldn't take more than a day or two.....

And it's headed east. Got rain most of the day Sunday in PA. I hope some of that rain veers south into Maryland, we need it bad. But not all at once - no floods, please.

Still hot and DRY here
I got some extended seat time this weekend. Cut the 6 acres on the hill and was covered in red dust
Good thing I had my mask. The seat time was nice but everything was nothing but dried up dust. I sharpened my blades before I started and got a pretty good cut with the Woods 42, It will probably get cut one more time before Stonethrow.
You guys up north of me stay safe and on the high ground

Wow what a great rain
I got 3 1/4 inches in two days nice and gental rain. I do not rember haveing a two day rainfall in the last few years. Seems all the storms latly have been down pours and over in a hours or so.
Just waiting for the lawn to dry out enough to mow. Even got to spend tow day at home so far.
