PHOTO OF THE DAY

SEPTEMBER 14, 2005

We're frequently asked, "What are you going to do with 58-acres of farmland?" Answer: "Let someone else farm it." Yesterday, our tenant farmer was doing "something" to the smaller field, near our house. He had just finished harvesting a crop of garbanzo beans, also know as chickpeas, and was, for lack of a better term, scratching the remaining vines back into the ground. At the same time he was adding some kind of soil nutrient to the ground from the tank you can see.

It's fun to watch all the action, even though we don't really know what they are doing. What they are doing is obvious at harvesting time, but at other times, it's pretty mysterious ... at least to us Fighter Pilots! LOL

(This field is about 500 yards in front of our house.)
