    I’m back and didn’t realize you were on another trip. Safe and enjoyable travels and I hope yours was as good as mine was.

    Judy, love the barn and the wagon with the red wheels. Pretty photos! Do you know what the wagon is used for? It looks like a covered wagon without the covering.

    Where exactly in the MidWest were you? We are heading home from Indiana today. Well that is if the forecast for bad storms goes away!

    Great photos. I forget how much open space still exists in this country. And I too thought the wagon was a covered wagon without the cover! Boy! What a planter it would make in your garden! 😜😜

    It’s pictures like yours that truly bring home how well blessed we are here in America – ‘from sea to shining sea….” – the charm of New England is so different from these “amber waves of grain” – yes! we have it all!

      Wheat harvesting is a wonderful time. I saw bundles of wheat placed in large piles or shocks for the very first time. My brother-in-law took me right into two different fields. The one in the photo hadn’t been cut yet, and the other one had been cut with the bundles piled in shocks ready to be picked up. You can see the wheat waving for as far as you can see in all directions.

    So flat – just like much of Australia. I love that barn.

    I am in the midwest, but the eastern part of the midwest…western Indiana. That barn is fantastic.

    Ah, those wide open spaces! I hope your trip home is an easy one. Thanks for the photos — dare I say the one of the wheat seems a bit grainy?

    I have a friend of a friend who grew up in Colorado and thought you could only have trees with mountains. Guess he’d only been to Kansas 🙂 Love your shots!

    There’s something about the prairie, plains, and farms of the Midwest that is stirring. I think I can actually see the curvature of the earth in one photo.

    This is a picture perfect post, Judy! And no, I am not just being polite and minding my P’s and Q’s.
    I’m a little slap happy so will stop and just say, each of your photographs looks like it could be a postcard! 🌞
