Rain forecast for tomorrow. Me on phone: Why are the lights on and the shed doors still open (I like to think I am on security detail). Brother: Got one more farm to apply anhydrous tonight. Done around 2am. #farmlife#plant19

Planting is complete! The sprayers are rolling now. East central Illinois is expecting rain this weekend and, I hate to say it, we could use a little shower. #MotherNature#farmlife#plant19 Corn popping up in rows.
2018 vs. 2019 to the day. Pivots even in the same spot. What a difference a year makes. The view looking out from this hill is heartbreaking. #Flood2019
What’s that light you ask? My bother planting late into the night before another chance of rain which could put them further behind. #noplant2019#flood2019#farmlife
Day four of sunshine in our little corner of the world. Planters have been running nonstop for a few days in a row. Grateful. Praying to those less fortunate. #noplant19#farmlife#Flood2019
@WanderingAmes I sandbagged late into the night in Alton the night before we lost the battle to the Mightly Miss in the #Flood1993. Hoped to have never seen it again in my lifetime. #Flood 2019
Prayers and hopeful thoughts go out to the hundreds of volunteers, friends and partners who have battled vigilantly to keep the Missouri and Grand rivers away from some of the best farm ground in the world. “Tough times don’t last but tough people do.” #2019flood#Flood2019
