Corn is getting ripe


Fall is a beautiful time in Iowa. A farmer near our home has shucked back the husk on several corn plants to reveal beautiful ears of corn. Farmers are combining soybeans but haven't really since the corn being harvested yet. The ears really "need to drop." Today our weather has turned rainy and cooler. It is to be in the 30's on Thursday night but then warm again. I have lots and lots of green tomatoes but not too many red. I sure have enjoyed fresh, great tasting tomatoes this fall.
