No pictures to post, but I just had to share after our bike ride last night. If you aren't in love with Iowa, you should take a bike ride through the country now. There is nothing more beautiful than rural Iowa. The beans are a deep green/blue and the corn is tasseled. Hay bales dot the fields and the ponds are gigantic mirrors. And of course - the cows make it perfect. I'm telling you - it is breath-taking.
Thoughts from a not-so-old farm girl!
And don't forget the aromas...fresh-cut alfalfa waiting the baler to name one. There are those who will make note of "not-so-pleasant" smells from the farm yard. But my dad always used to say: "That smells like money to me!"
ReplyDeleteI miss riding to Corning for the races in the summer...great memories! Love you, A!
