Part of the ritual of farm living is the "crop tour". We get in the pickup and drive around to the different fields to see how the crops are doing. The farmer checks for disease and insects, studies the head of the wheat to see how the kernals are filling, and checks the amount of moisture in the soil. I go along, take pictures and shout words of encouragement to the wheat. I love crop tours.
I also love the clouds during a storm. This is from Monday . It built up southwest of us and gradually filled the whole sky. The different layers have different shapes, and move in different directions. Tucker doesn't like the lightening and thunder, but I do. This storm brought 1/2 inch of rain, and no hail. I am amazed at how many colors of gray there are.
