FARMER'S WERE OUT WORKING ON HARVESTING THEIR BEAN CROPS SUNDAY NIGHT |
Our evening jaunts have almost become as routine as our morning jaunts. With a nice-looking Sunday evening taking shape, Pheebs and I were again out the door and on our way.
|
THESE BRIGHTLY COLORED RED WAGONS WILL SOON BE LOADED WITH BEANS |
|
HARVESTING BEANS CAN BE A DUSTY BIT OF BUSINESS AND HERE YOU CAN SEE 2 COMBINES AT WORK |
|
HEY, IS THAT GUY WATCHING 'JEOPARDY' ON HIS MONITOR |
|
THE COMBINES CAN LOAD THEIR BEANS DIRECTLY INTO THIS WAITING TRANSPORT TRUCK |
|
HARD TO SEE THE COMBINE FOR ALL THE DUST |
|
HEADING WEST INTO THE SUNSET AND THAT STRAIGHT HORIZON LINE OUT THERE IS LAKE HURON |

SOME FARMERS WERE BURNING SUNDAY NIGHT'S MIDNIGHT OIL |
With Monday morning's sunny clear sky overhead the furry kid and I logged in another country road walk. For the second time in a week, we headed back home after our outing. I'm not sure what's going on there but I had no interest in going anywhere or taking any morning photos. Very unusual for me. Home again, after reading and having a short snooze I decided to tackle a big spring cleaning job that I had been putting off. Five months late but what the heck, the sunroom needed a good cleaning so with my interests moving me in that direction I took full advantage of that and kept myself busy vacuuming, dusting, scrubbing, re-arranging, and cleaning more windows all afternoon. I honestly wished I had more days like that where I had that elusive energy of my teenage years. |
OF COURSE, PHEEBS KEPT A CLOSE EYE ON ME TO MAKE SURE I WAS DOING THINGS RIGHT |
|
SHE'S CHECKING TO SEE IF I MISSED ANY SPOTS WHILE VACUUMING |
Pheebs and I were planning on heading out to watch the full moon come up but it was not to be. It turned cloudy and started to rain. Luckily, I had taken one last nearly full moon shot Sunday night.
GROANER'S CORNER:(( A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone crowded about a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside-down pot and a duck tap dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing, they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot. Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger, "Your duck is a ripoff! I put him on the pot before a whole audience, and he didn't dance a single step!" "So?" asked the ducks former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?"-----------------------
When I was young, I was poor... But after many years of hard work, I am no longer young.

Beautiful photos Al. We just started our corn harvest here this week. Lost my privacy when they cut down the corn around our yard.
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of beans down compared to the few small fields around here. And much bigger machinery!
ReplyDeleteSo good that your sidewalk superintendent was on duty today. Great to have such a great helper.
ReplyDeleteOh my. That sunroom looks perfect for living in. No wonder you sometimes decide to stay in when you're back from your morning outing.
ReplyDeleteI love that photo of the tractor trailer heading down the road with the full moon over it's shoulder.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the long legged elephant! That's art! Of course, so are your photos. Lucky us who follow this blog.
ReplyDeleteI love your sunroom! Elva Shannon
ReplyDeleteI agree with Karen on the moon and truck photo. And that last one with the old barn is frameable!! Stunning sunset - wow that color!
