When I live in the country…. it seems that I write about country things.
Corn. Farmers. And such.
Today I walked by this field of corn… or what used to be corn.
It reminded me that this has been going on for a long time.
This tradition of planting and harvesting. And each year, doing it over and over again.
It is somewhat remarkable that it even works.
Then I happened to think about living in the country in Preble County. Wouldn’t it be cool if your ancestor-farmers were named McDonald or something?
You know. Like Old McDonald.
He had a farm for sure.
But.
That guy would have been well-served to know a Vanna White… or a Pat Sajak. SOMEBODY….. I say…. somebody…. let that guy buy a consonant.
E-I-E-I-O.
“Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.” – Martin Luther
