Arkansas folks speak up.........

We got about 1.5" last night here in southeast Arkansas. Not what we wanted, but should make the garden and grass grow. Since we are mowing and bagging the grass and giving it to the breeding pens, every little bit of grass with seed heads is important.

Our pasture needs more than we got too. TV says we are still minus around 7 inches. 3 days of good slow rain wouldn't hurt my feelings.

Wow! I have my fingers crossed. Needing the rain for some more hay.

Can't afford another hay shortage.

Can't afford another hay shortage.

I agree. It isn't that we can't afford it, but every where is sold out all the time. Even our regular hay lady said "If we don't get some more rain this year. We won't be able to sell any."

Jumping in from TN

My daughter has a speech project and needs to interview someone that has been to Hot Springs, Arkansas and did the spa thing there. If you can help me by letting my daughter ask some questions....please, please, PM me.

I've been there a 100 times but never got a spa treatment.

Me neither. One of my favorite Fish stores is there.

X2. No matter how much money you have if it don't rain you don't find hay. And since my Dad added 2 Belgums with mule colts and a Pucharon to our heard in January????? Come on rain!!!

I went to Jr. High, High School, married and had kids, and still own a house there and never went to the spas. How bad am I ????
