Today we combined the corn plot for the Extension Service. P had about 40 different corn varieties. I provided an early lunch of sandwiches, cookies, and pop & water. Today’s plot was from 9:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. so they got it done in good time.
JP, Mark, & Wayne worked at the far end. I never remember to pack separate food & drinks boxes for P to take there. He reminded me today. It helped!
Phil continued with combining there behind his dad’s the rest of the afternoon.
and sew on... 
These photos make me homesick for harvest, Jules . . .oh, to feel the crisp air, to breath in the smell of corn, sliced from its umbilicus, no longer nurturing tender stalks of green, but rather housing nutrients of another sort. tomorrow’s silage, next years’ crop . . .
*sigh*
