Landscape

The summer brings a different scenery around here (versus the snow in winter). 
 
 
We had tall wheat fields at the beginning of the summer. 
 
 


We have even taller corn fields.  SO. MUCH. CORN.  This will basically dry up before they do anything.  Did you know that each corn stalk only has 1 ear of corn on it?  Yep.  Just one.  So.. everytime you eat one corn on the cob, it came from just a single plant.  Matt said, "Wow, if they could figure out how to have 2 ears per stalk we could solve the world's hunger." 

The wheat was harvested.... then they spread turkey poop.  Yep... that's the smell we've had around here lately.... SO. DISGUSTING.  That is our house, behind all the dust of turkey poop.  Yep.  GROSS.  NOT. FUN.  I need to buy more candles and wall flowers..... 

Bean fields!  They are really tall too... I'll do Micah's pics next month in front of one so you can see how tall they actually are. 

With all the clouds we do get some pretty sunsets.  Those are the windmills we see in the distance.... TONS of them.
