Amish corn shocks and other harvest icons


The dark building in the rear is our old hop house. It still contains the drying racks that were used to dry that crop

Green cardboard, huh? I seertainly hoope we doo not get ahnny ov zees around zees parts.

The pictures are very cool, by the way. Kind of haunting in their starkness.

Linda, thank you...it is very frightening isn't it?!? I was trying to take some bird photos out by the feeder and that critter popped up!

Stacy, hope you can safely avoid it!
And thanks...

FC, it is actually getting a bit green as we go through our traditional January thaw, but I believe from the forecast that winter is on its way back :

Teen age boys. If you're lucky they never outgrow the silliness and you have a lifetime of laughs (and mock horror).

Jan, I have high hopes for him. I have two brothers, one in his forties, one in his fifties and they are still pretty silly sometimes...and you should see my husband when he gets going on about his pearls.
