I woke up to find my irrigation sprinklers were not running. I walked out to the irrigation building to find the pump not running. The pressure gage read over 100 lbs. I tried to restart the pump. It started up. The pressure gage went up to 130 lbs. I wasn't sure if water was being pumped. I flipped the problem switch to on and the pump turned off. Either too much pressure or not enough pressure. I had a field to bale so I left it be. On the way home I removed the end cap to a sprinkler line and not much water ran out. Too much pressure probably not the problem. A problem to be solved another day.
I am falling asleep as I type this so I will make this short. Baler/haying problems started right off, kept up much of the day, and ended the day before sunset. I have two rows left to bale. I was sooo close before a belt twisted on the baler again. This has been a nightmare field to bale.
95 degrees is no fun, even in an air conditioned tractor cab. The air conditioner struggles to keep up in this heat and in a cab of all windows. 20% chance of rain on Saturday. If I don't get these last two rows baled it will surely rain on my field.
