Hello All, Thought I'd gone to the big ol' compost pile in the sky didn't you?
Well the Huge garden we had this summer (Well over 7000 sq. ft. ) was a chore, then putting it all up, was even tougher...
But, Summer has gone here, and apparently so has fall...Glad to be back, I'll be here often now that the weather has turned harsh

Thought I'd share these pics
Yesterday, we had these freakish high winds, blew over alot of field corn, that hasn't been taken out yet (1000 acres or more yet unharvested)
blew out a few limbs here...then, this morning...well..

Pretty much the scene here in Southern Minnesota this morning

Welcome back Pharmer Phil. Brrr that looks cold!! I see you are in Minnesota. I've been there, my only claim to fame. Stayed in Rochester for a few days visiting my Nephew who was out there on some sort of student exchange working on a Cattle Farm.
