It is unusual for us to be arriving at the farm in August so we were pleasantly surprised to see the place bursting with hay. The big barn is full to the top with square bales while the new hay barn is full of round bales. And everything is green. The corn stalks are tall, close to ten feet tall so we are surrounded with fields of very tall corn. The farm looks productive, and the cows and calves seem happy. The growing season has been kind to the farmers in 2013.
Today we drove from Scranton to the farm, a drive of four hours. Highway 81 goes through a valley. It is a lovely drive. If you could just take the trucks off the road the drive would be even better. It is the same road for us when we head south so we know the highway well but I did not realize how beautiful it was north of Hagerstown. Everything was lush.
And the best part was the house. It was clean and cool!! It is a lovely spot, our house on the hill. For ease of living, it is our most comfortable home. We have everything we need, so we will enjoy it before beginning our trek south to Mississippi. But not yet!!
