A two-fer

Yesterday, I was taking a picture of the corn, with the tractor for perspective to send to my son to show him how tall the corn is. Around here the old saying was knee-high by the 4th. On the 4th I couldn't even reach the top of the corn. It wasn't until after I took the picture that I noticed the shadow from the windmill. I thought it was a neat picture and wanted to share.

Knee high was the saying around here year's ago also. Now days we are tasseling by the 4th. This year we had a cool and wet spring and you had to look very close to see it was just starting to tassel on the 4th. Nice picture of the corn the old 50 JD and the windmill in the back ground. I have my FIL 1950 Model JD A that he bought new.

Jake, you have a pretty good eye to pick out a honeybee here, there are several thousand buzzing around the Anderson Bee Ranch.
Hedgerow, the 1953 JD 50 was my dads, and now belongs to my son. We are keeping it here while he deploys to Guam. I also have a 1950 JD A that my grandfather bought new, and I grew up cultivating corn with it. It is awaiting restoration. I love the sound of a 2 cyl.

10-15 ft, hadn’t you heard, llamas carry covid antibodies. I charge $10 to have my llama spit on you.
