Summer is all about one thing:
Water!
Water for the crops
(which I will tell you about in another series)
and Mom keeping her flowers and stuff wet.
And Dad keeping the farm crops growing.
Water!
The Life Blood for the Farm!
This water stuff doesn’t come to end until late August or early September.
It all depends on how fast the corn matures
and when the last cutting of alfalfa occurs.
For Mom, the watering of her yard comes to a hault
when the farmer next door stops watering his fields.
Water…there is more to it than meets the eye.

Water and farming go together like peanut butter and jelly. Once, I almost stepped in a puddle. Just sayin’.
Love and licks,

Charlee: “That sounds like a lot of water!”
Chaplin: “We generally try to avoid it except when we’re thirsty and then we go get it from the bowl.”
Charlee: “Oh and of course when we want to go stare at the fish tank.”
Chaplin: “Oh of course. But that’s water under glass, not on us, so it’s all good.”
