We Cut Soybeans 2014 {Part 1}
The beans were ready. The weather was bright. It was time to cut. The time was right. The combine was full. A bin of beans. Time to unload. Don’t split at the seams. Out comes the grain. The dust billows too. Farmer looks on. From a graincart view. Load up the truck. Right […]
Reflections from the Bean Field
Brilliant blue of the sky, Bugs buzzing and bumbling, Breeze blowing, Beans bouncing into the bin, Breathing in the blend of fall harvest ~ dust, dirt, and stalks, a different smell than that of wheat harvest. A smell of autumn, Fall harvest. Not quite knowing, If it will be hot or cold, Depending from day […]

Because I Love the Field of Milo Outside My Windows
My husband mentioned to me that the sunshine in the early morning looked pretty on the milo from over at the farm. I ventured over one morning so I could snap some photos. I could have so much fun just wandering here and there taking pictures, but there are things like housekeeping and bookkeeping and […]

It’s Monday time! Jotting down a few things from last week. This week is going to be busy. It is has been heavy on my mind recently to simply enjoy every single day and the everyday comforts I take for granted. I’d been working on a Daniel study earlier and then had a break from […]
Green, Green Fields of Weeds
One year in the land of Kansas, there was very little rain. Not much AT All. The wheat grew despite the dry and did its very best, because it is hardy and made to grow despite harsh conditions. Still, though it grew, it was thin and short as it ripened and turned gold. And then […]
The Wheat Harvest Continues
