  2. Loved Amanda's comment! What is it I'm looking at? I know it's not the vineyard, so is it the chiles or the peanuts or something that I missed in other blogs. I keep thinking of the show "Green Acres" only you seem to love the earth as much as everyone--so you really don't fit Eva Gabor, but still.... :)

  3. I do love this earth! I'm not only being poetic when I call it magical. There's something about this place. You'll have to come visit once we get our house built out here. It'll feed your soul.

    The photo is a field of what was cotton last year and what will be cotton again this year once it's planted. The green you see is winter wheat. It's planted to keep the soil in place during the winter months. (We have what is considered "highly erodible soil." Being such a high content of sand, it'll all fly away in the wind if we're not careful.)

  4. I stand corrected. This isn't winter wheat: it's rye.
