This week on the farm we've been busy spraying Round-Up, soil sampling, picking up rocks and started row crop cultivating out volunteer corn. Another highlight is that we got rain a couple different times in the past week.
Here's a look at my "backyard" this week:

Man, that corn is really shooting up quickly!
