We started yesterday too. We've had corn finished for three weeks but weather hasn't cooperated for beans. Nice looking setup you have there!

That is what it would look like if we were trying to plant beans, but it would be like that everywhere. It just won't dry up here to do anything. I still lack 400 acres of corn to sidedress. Every time it looks like it may dry enough to get in the field in a day or two, it comes another 2 or 3 inches. I am sure it will stop soon, then not rain again until about harvest time. LOL
By the way, we seem to have that "stuck" issue a lot. I feel for you, it's no fun dragging chains and cables.
