Helicopter Spraying Our Corn Fields

I missed the first round of spraying. I had a chance to grab my camera when the pilot was refueling. These were the best pictures I could get. I was hoping to get more photos in the valley.

It's been years since we've had to have crops sprayed by air. Our corn has a fungus. We have Grey Leaf Spot which kills corn prematurely.

I wasn't expecting a helicopter,usually it's a plane. Tom called me to go outside to look. I would of missed it because the house is closed up because of the AC. It's fun to watch!! Usually the planes fly right under the power lines.

Making Primitive Twig Scarecrows With Friends

I had my camera with me, so had to take pictures. 3 of us got together today to make scarecrows.We were at my best friend Chris's farm. Chris has a beautiful place. She's going school to become a nurse and had a full time job. She just quit her job, I don't know how she's kept up with everything.


The barn is new, it had to be rebuilt. The old one collapsed in a bad storm.

Liz and I got to Chris's in the morning and started in. Not long after we got to Chris's we discovered that we had forgotten alot of the supplies we needed. So both of us went back to our houses to get stuff.

3 scarecrows are about finished. If you are wondering... we got the pattern out of the Country Living Seasons At Seven Gates Farm. It is one of my favorite books!!!

This is one of Chris's scarecrow. There were twigs still attached. The twigs looked like arms,it looks so good.



This is my scarecrow. It is made out of Cherry, looks like the old guy has a sunburn. I still need to attach his arms. I used an old lid and flipped it over. I'm going to put birdseed in the rim of the hat. I have a couple more to finish. I will post pictures after I get them finished.

Neighbor's Horse Came to Visit

Looked out the back window and saw the neighbor's horse. It comes over every once in awhile. I don't know much about horses~everytime I see them they are eating.
