Pictures on the way to work...

[hubcapsc]

I stopped to take a few pictures on the way to work this morning... some worked out,
some didn't.

There's a fellow I know, Mr. Hunt, who lives back in the area I ride through - he has
a nice farm and house and flies three flags... I've gone by there when they were
in the wind and have been wanting to go back and get a picture... no wind today...

Another place where there's like a bazzilion acres of soybeans just now turning
from green to yellow, some fields and then the mountains in the background...
it just looks like a picture of a Valkyrie...

These two are OK... fields full of round bales make for good pictures, I think...



There's some really nice large Oak trees in this one...

Nice shots Mike. Re. the round bales, I recall when my girls were little they wanted to know why some were square and some were round. I told them the square ones were for farmers with hills, that way they wouldn't roll down the hill and smash at the bottom. The round bales were for farmers with flat land because there was no danger of them getting away. They all shook their heads in awe of dad's wisdom. My wife merely shook her head....then told me I was raising damaged children. As adults, a lot of it came back as good natured ribbing of old dad.

  That is awesome! I do miss the days when my now-adult daughters were young and I used to do the same with them. I'm waiting for grandkids now, so I can impart my "wisdom" on them too

 In Wisconsin the round bales have been outlawed because you have to feed your cows a square meal.
Great pictures.

I can see at least one of those pictures in a future calendar. They meet all the specifications.
