We took Mike up to college this weekend. We helped him move in, and walked around the campus. It is fairly spread out, with a pretty stream running through it. All dorm rooms like alike, and his was no exception. We didn't get to meet the roommate, who didn't arrive on day one. It is very quiet at home. Even Tucker is subdued. It doesn't seem real that we are empty nesters. It will take come getting used to.
This is my favorite time of year. I love the color of the cut straw. Sometimes I take out drinks and ride around with the farmer. The sky is blue, the clouds are puffy, and the view from the cab of the combine is beautiful. There is still the "what if" of weather, and protein, and bushels per acre, not to mention prices that fluctuate. So far, so good.
