    This reminds me when my daughter bought me a ticket to come see her in Aberdeen SD. 19 years ago. The pilot went low so we could see the destruction of the rains, it looked like a gigantic quilt! Beautiful blue water outlined by trees on four sides covered such a vast area. I had heard about all the rain that got dumped in SD, but I was not prepared to see the destruction from up above, that’s a whole new level of understanding of what we cannot control. ❤

    Nice work you and dad do fence building. You build some of the finest fence work I have seen. Great!!!!!!

It cranked right up, I don’t think I’ve seen my husband that happy in a long time. The tractor belonged to his grandfather which dearly loved. I’m going to buy him a new seat for it and a canopy. If you guys know a good 3 party parts place for John Deeres please let me know.

    We are wet in east central MN, but not as wet as what you have shown in this video. It has been a tough year for us to plant and now to try and get hay done. I wish you luck out in your area, I think a lot of the mid-west is fighting the wet weather and more on the way. Best of luck to you.

    I'm so sorry for all the farmers. Good that you had that great first cutting in in time (I hope you got most!) And hope all your cattle and houses are safe

      And since Cole never talked about it, I'm glad those bales didn't get flooded.
