We did another crop tour today. We got 1.3" of rain over the past two days, and the corn should do well, as long as it doesn't freeze before mid-September. The combine is out in front of the shed, and the header is on. It is a sign that harvest is just around the corner.
This is county fair week, with a rodeo tonight. The rain has made the arena a mudbath. It should be interesting to see the cowboys trying to rope calves on slippery ground. We will go see the exhibits this afternoon. Perhaps next year, I will enter a quilt and see if I will the blue ribbon.
There were Canadian geese in the pond by the lake. They like the rain as much as the farmer does.
Safe travels to those on the move. Marmee
