More from summer 2010

Corn and beans
      The saying is this: Knee high corn by the 4th. of July should be a good crop....this is what our corn looked like on the 4th.


And the beans....not on the 4th. but looking pretty nice...


Did you ever wonder where the pretty color named 'thistle' in the Crayola box came from?...well here it is:
It is a pretty flower but a nasty weed!


and this is where 'cornflower blue' comes from




We've had a lot of rain this year....but it has produced an abundance of pretty flowers and foliage...
 Come sit a spell.....

How'd Marv find the tallest plant in the field to stand in front of?! ;)

It all looks beautiful. And I've always loved the thistle flowers- they are really pretty!
