Oh, and here is a graphic I captured a few days ago showing the expected aggregate rainfall for Wed-Wed. The universe clearly hates Texas, northern California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, and a good portion of the Dakotas. (I mean true deserts are getting more rain than Texas!)

I will stop complaining about how rainy MI can be about 9-11 months of the year.

Crazy weather. My daughter is cleaning up water from her basement in St. Louis (which is better than people in Kentucky), and Texas gets nothing.

I've been trying to stock up on beef sales when I see 'em, even though they're not as good of sales now as they were 6 months ago and beyond, a sale is a sale and they will only get fewer & further between methinks. Just like gas prices, act while you can. Might also be time for me to dust off my old .270 and get better at harvesting venison.

That sucks what’s happening to cattle ranchers in TX. We all lose in that scenario.
