Re: weather update CA>
Sandwich, Cape Cod......first of the month we had about 10 days of rain.....2
days later I continued to plow the fields. Now it is the end of the month...
Fields so dry, the plow just scrapes the top soil.
I have been irrigating for 4 days now... 60 of the 70 acres of pumpkin fields
are ready for seeding.
I tried to harrow the dust today and decided it would be better if I continued
to irrigate instead.
Would someone please send about an inch of rain over to me...would really
appreciate it.
