Finally raining; 55 days

Getting some much-needed rain today; .2" -- pretty happy with the total so far.  We could use another few tenths of an inch, but 48 hours into it I can see the corn perking up.  At this point the corn grows almost visibly; it's a pretty amazing plant.

Forecast says that we get 6 days of sun and 90s starting tuesday, so I'm greasing the mower, rake and baler and getting ready to do the 3rd cutting of the year.   I'm guessing we'll get 4 cuttings this year off the fields, which is exceptional.
