Hanging out in the yard

I was just walking into house tonight after work and I could hear a plane that wasn’t too far away from our farm. Now about this time of the year, people might start spraying their crops with planes and the reason for this is because the corn is too tall for the sprayer to be in the fields. So after the second time I heard the plane go over our house I thought I better go out and check it out. Now I don’t know about you, but really why do you go and check out a plane flying around? It’s not like they can see you and it’s not like they’re going to do some fantastic stunts or anything. I’m not really sure why people go and watch a plane – but guess what I did? I went outside into the yard to watch the plane. Too funny right? Well, the airplane wasn’t spraying any crops that I could see and I’m not sure just exactly what he was doing. I thought at first it might be my brothers checking out their crops and tile lines from the air, but they said it wasn’t them. So the only thing that I can think of is that maybe he was taking farm pictures to sell door to door later. If that’s what he was doing, I’m pretty sure that I’ll be in the picture in the middle of our farm just watching him fly around.DSCN8724

The picture of the day is my petunias by our front door. This was the first year that I’ve tried to grow them from seed and I had kind of a hard time getting them to start. But I’m really thinking that they are doing much better than the ones that I bought later this spring to fill in. I’m kind of digging how they’ve turned out.  Check them outDSCN8727
