We've had 0.17" since October 1st..  Now we've had 7.75" in August and September of 2017.. so the moisture's down there.. just need to grow roots down to it.  I'm not trying to be a jerk.. or say.. "It's THE END of the WORLD".. it's just a dry spell.. and in 6 months it could be flooding.. so who knows?

but it is frustrating..

Again very few fields were actually blowing much.. mostly the roads.. and the cattle spots.. and the sand ridges.. but there was "alot" of dirt in the air WHILE the front went through.. a few hours later.. things have settled down quite a bit.

However there are a spot or two which look like this.. this is my sandridge which I keep going back to.. other than this.. A GOOD WET SPELL could turn it all around.. whether it does or not..???

PERSPECTIVE: the top 2 pictures represent maybe 0.005%.. the bottom one probably catches 85%!!  or more.. however I'm trying to SHOW what that stuff is GOING THROUGH as these fronts basically Sandblast it.. every time they come through.. KILLS IT?!?  NO!!!.. but "not helping."  Like the Cattle above.. we're just Hunkering down and "living through it."

and yes the top 2 pic's were taking later this afternoon after the winds settled down..  I think the wheat on that ridge is probably gone.. but been surprised before so..???
