Fall seems to be here - mid 40s overnight and a high of around 64 today. The sky is full of lake effect clouds and the combination of last night's rain and dew has everything sparkling.

Stan got the little silo about 1/3 full, and that's pretty much that for this year. The cows will get to harvest the side hill the next time the grass grows and he's pretty sure we'll have enough haylage for the year. He bought 100 ton of corn yesterday. It cost 1/3 more than last year, and last year, he bought 120 ton. The guy we get it from lives right on the PA OH border and he said out there, there are some 4 and 5 generation dairies selling their cows - can't afford to feed them. Stan's of the opinion that we can't afford to sell ours right now. It seems to be all most as hard to get out as it was to get in!
