it's vacation time let's go
so
oh boy
look at that where's lucky at oh there he is
what is it rosie a mom a mod
yeah after we watch a movie with him and take him to the park there we go there's the turtle
what do you think he eats do you guys think he eats pizza
do you does he pepperoni does he do pineapple
he's american that's right we don't do pineapple silly turtle
here comes the hail again i just got back from
vacation and it's coming down so we're parking our vehicles
out of the hail
there we go
oh boy i don't know there's enough room let's try it oh that is some big hail
oh i'm not getting hit by that come on
turn around turn around
there we go here we go again
oh my word oh yeah that's wonderful
look at those things oh my word
scott was right he's like oh i just got his head
guys this is what it's about this is the life of farming for you
oh my phone just got hit with a hailstone i'm on the court of the shop cover on the top here
but yeah that would hurt help leave some wealth some of those are pushing two inches
oh this storm came from nowhere
oh that is actually pretty cool looking look at that the extra layer that was added to it
the initial stone and then it built that extra layer on it you should save a couple of these and
put them in the refrigerator go careful who you are you're gonna get hit you brave girl you we
didn't say this earlier but we got while we were on vacation a small thunderstorm came across went
right through our farm just like the one last year knocked out 1300 acres we didn't have insurance
we decided against us here because the crops are droughting so bad obviously that was a big
mistake so then we went and put insurance on and now this is round two so now we're getting hail
but it's not coming down really intense but there's
some big stones that's barley right over there
and uh there's the there's the cummins the beater peter no beater feeder chevy chevy sorry beat or
down the road just storms just passed us we're just gonna go take a look and see what happened
oh there's a big stone that one was like a small baseball
there was one stone back there that was a big one wow
oh boy
yeah that's nasty
another torp's coming over some pea-sized hail nothing too serious
we're just going to the other side of the farm now we went north and the founder where the hail
stopped basically at the north side of our farm now we're heading east kind of checking the south
southeast side because we're curious this is the side of dink it hails in the first storm
as much and we'll know now if it did it looks like a lot of stinking hill there's the peas
any blossoms on those things there's a couple pods
they never got too bad yeah there's pods not all the farm left the hail
look at the hail oh there we go yeah there's a little white hail all over there's some big ones
man i just i don't know man there's some big stones in that ground
all those peas hard to tell
so we're only about a half mile south of where we were
and there is no hail stones on the ground at all here no so it didn't get down here that's
that's good there's a lot of peas down this way that we do not want to have hail on including that
stuff right there there's that storm that went over us looks smaller from over here
yeah it did not get hailed here just just some rain all right there's some more peas
this is that winter weed isn't it
yeah there's i mean it's amazing how much heads are out there for how
bad it looked when we were contemplating spraying it out
just judging from where we went looks like it pretty much followed the same track as the storm
a week ago well not a week ago like five days ago so uh and that stuff
we didn't have insurance on so we weren't able to put shirts on that again but the stuff we did
ensure if it did get any hail on it at least we'll have some coverage on that so we'll see
but uh yeah it's gonna be uh it'd be interesting we'll drive around some more and keep looking but
um yeah those are some big stones that's it that is the one that just formed above us and did that
ah it's amazing absolutely amazing i keep saying that but that's all i can say at the moment after
it process a little bit more but got our moisture though everyone's been praying for moisture for
us we appreciate that we got it it's uh let me introduce you we'll see what happens there's
young crop out there even though it got hailed if we get some help in july it still has a chance to
produce and the stuff that got hailed didn't get just destroyed i mean it damaged them heads some
are hanging some are shattered i'm sure there's some pea pods on the ground you know every little
bit leaves a little little yield little here a little there maybe 10 here 20 percent there but
you know we'll still take the columbine through and see what happens let's go over
to the chicken coop how you doing ladies you got some puddles to play and i see
we are just under half inch 4500s right there 4500 so that's good it's good you know a little
bit of hail with a lot of rain is a good thing because if you take the rain the benefit of
the rain outweighs the damages of the hail a lot of hail a little rain is a bad thing
and then a lot of hail a lot of rain well i guess you want the rain regardless
you
