Knee High by the Fourth of July!









We've been sitting around watching the corn grow, and grow, and grow! "Knee high by the 4th of July" used to be the farmer's goal. But this year, with hybrid varieties and bountiful rain every three or four days, it will likely by changed to "chest high" by July 4th.

These photos were taken on Father's Day. Beth's daughter and husband Rick invited us to a barbecue at their house. The corn was planted by their farmer landlord, who also raises goats and rabbits. The kids had squirt guns, and it was hard to get them close enough to each other to take a photo. Hope everyone's Father's Day was as fun as ours!
