Tractors

Last Sunday after Jake and his crew (Amelia and Andrew) stopped by for the night, we all got up early. They headed back to Michigan and I headed to a Tractorcade, or a tractor parade out in the middle of nowhere. It was actually pretty cool.

And I met the coolest little kid ever! His name is Gannon, and he is from Mt. Pleasant, Iowa (which I thought was interesting!). He was sitting in a giant pile of dried corn cobs looking for pieces of corn for his pigs. And when I asked him if he wanted to be a farmer when he grew up, he said, "No, I don't think so. It's really hard work."
