The Hushed Voice of the Farm, Monday, October 5, 2020

(I hate this new way of writing on WordPress!)

Please excuse the mistakes, but this is taking some getting used to!!

It’s very crisp coolness here, of a morning. Not enough to see your breath, but getting close.

By afternoon, late afternoon, around 5 p.m. it is warm. Nicely so.

We are busy, as always, although, the irrigations are now done.

We are waiting for the corn to dry down before we harvest. It takes time.

Days of warmth, rustling of wind through the stalks, nights of cool to cold.

Many such days…each day passing, each day similar to the day before.

Still, change is taking place, in the air, on the cooling earth, in the glowing light of the sky

Silently changing, silently moving forward.

Always

Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

Linda

I feel your pain on writing in a new format. Blogger did a do over too and for a while you couldn’t even caption photos. Better now but it sure takes some getting used to. Lovely photo’s as always.

I love the depiction (in both pictures and words) of early October days on the farm.

I don’t like it either. I don’t have to use it yet on my main blog, but they’ve brought it in on my FootSquare blog. I revert to the Classic format wherever possible. And I hate how hard they’ve made it to add photos. That said, I couldn’t see any difference in your end result, gorgeous images and inspiring words, as always. xxx

Adding photos is the worst. And getting the block off —it’s not easy. And they won’t let you switch to classic anymore 😦

  Where it says “Block Editor”, look for a little arrow. It it is here, click it. I’ve read where other bloggers have found the little arrow (triangle?) and Classic Editor is in the drop down menu.

Looks like you did real good. If it is any consolation Blogger changed a bunch of stuff too. Confusion all over the place! Hi and gentle pats to Boomer:)
