Take a break - you might miss something.
This past week was three long days turning ground, planting, and interruptions to run for replacement parts.
You know that a drive belt never breaks until you use it, right?
And a planter plate doesn't turn if it's jammed.
I was rushing to plant the early crops before a rain on Thursday and another all-day job off the farm on Friday.
This is the time of year that if you get into a hurry, you miss things.
Like
a sunset at the end of a long day, where the shadow cast along the
bottom half of a soft maple tree but the sun illuminates the crown.
You
can find your own metaphor in this but I find it one pauses once in a
while you may capture a memory or two. I would have liked a better
camera/skills to capture it for others.
Stay safe out there and give the farmers a little leeway while they move equipment from field to field.
It's planting season.
