it looks a lot like fall...
but with the temps in the 90's, it feels like summer...
so half way in between fall and summer is falmer...
and that's worth a drive...
all the unmowed road ways are littered with wonderful yellow...
but there's still green...
and beans...
but it wouldn't be falmer without John Deere...
you should hear all the rustling going on...
corn is a noisy crop...
and implements litter the landscape...
the ears need to drop...
and a lot of fields are labeled with the seed used...
an old RR sign...leaning from being pushed aside by farming...
and the roads we traveled today were criss crossed with RRs...
fun red gate just waiting for swinging on...
that leads to a pasture of black angus beef cattle...
golden rod is blazing...
but we need rain and the creeks are low...
and our here in the boonies...
there are no lights or warnings...
you have to stop and look both ways and listen...
the trains have to blow their horn...
one short, one long, 2 short...
a field picked...
augers in front of the elevator...
just waiting to be put into use...
the elevator gearing up...
a couple of farmers dumping this evening...
the elevator is huge...
and what would a falmer drive be without a little critter?...
I met a new friend on the way home...
his mommy was hit by a car and went to Heaven...
so he was rescued with his sibling...
this little boy is about 4 weeks old...
in another month he can be released back where he needs to go...
he is so healthy and happy...
he chattered at me and talked up a storm...
what a sweet baby he is...
I will visit him again before we have to say goodbye...
ya'll have a great evening...
and if you have a critter...
sit down and have a chat...
you'll be surprised at what they have to say...

Tete-what an adorable little critter. I always talk to my doggies...and my miss lola mae talks back and she actually scolds me! And I know what you mean about falmer-we have it here too. Anticipation mixed with what has been....there goes my melancholy again (can't seem to spell that word right)!
