About Dayphoto

My name is Linda Brown. I live on a farm on the western slope of Colorado, in the high mountain desert. I’ve lived here all my life, hailing back four generations on my father’s side. Today I blog about our farm, the everyday activities that keep the farm going. I also write about my thoughts and dreams and goals. On Friday’s I always write about TLC Cai-Cai. Our sweet kitty who helps keep the farm safe. And Boo Berry Betty, a breeder dog learning to be a Farm Dog! The lovely thing about blogging it opens the world up for all of us to reach out and meet people from many different cultures and different ways of life. You can find me every day (but Saturday) at https://coloradofarmlife.wordpress.com/ Your Friend on a Western Colorado Farm, Linda Brown

The tractor was junk!  Didn’t run, the PTO frozen on one side, the tires didn’t even match, many other things.  Not what the guy said on the phone, by any means!

We are getting close to Topeka, Kansas.  The drive was very pretty, and we got to see many crops, and some of the farmers harvesting corn.

 We are on our way to see about a 630 John Deere Tractor in Kansas. The classic tractor’s home is close to Topeka.  Our route takes us through the beautiful canyon by Glenwood, Colorado.

Maybe the Wind Won’t Blow Down the Corn

So far there is enough green and the moisture content is high on the cob, that the kernals are sticking.  When everything gets dry enough to harvest, the concern comes about the wind.  Wind will shuck the corn, but if the shucks are still around the corn the shucks will save the kernals for the harvest.  Worry, Worry, Worry!
