A short thought today - I was driving home from town, it's hot out but the countryside is still green and beautiful. You come up over a hill and look out onto the horizon and all you see is "GREEN" trees and more trees. As I turned onto my road, I had to pull over as a big huge tractor, which took up both lanes, headed my way. The farmer waved and I proceeded on. When you are driving out in the countryside out here, you have to have one hand on the top of your steering wheel so you can raise 4 of our fingers or your hand, briefly to give the "Missouri wave". Everyone waves at you and you have to wave back. I continue on my way I see another farmer seeding his recently cut winter wheat pasture with soybeans. Reach another cross road and there is a little farmer traveling along in a old John Deere tractor pulling a big wagon filled with corn. As I get close to home, I see our pond with a great big blue crane walking along the edge fishing.
Rough life this country life - And I love it. More stories and recipes coming soon.
