| Sunrise on the Farm |
We took our Labor Day vacation to meet with two of my children and their children at my in-law's farm.
 |
| Corn Field |
They're not farming anymore but rent out their land to a neighbor who does, so they are surrounded by corn and beans. It's been a bad year for crops--too wet a Spring and too dry a Summer. This corn, however, looks pretty good and it's normal for it to be drying this time of year. They won't pick it until it's almost all turned brown so the corn will be dry when stored until they can sell it.

| Old Family Barn |
This barn has been around a long time--probably close to 100 years--but it still holds many hours of fun for my grandchildren.
 |
| Little Farmers |
Look what they found in the shed--an old pony cart that's still useable, 2011 style. Here are seven of the nine children there last weekend. Two of the oldest were busy cavoting somewhere else. We had a great time. If only we'd added one more child, his wife and their four kids. I'm grateful, though, for every time we get to see any of our children and grands.
