30 Days of Thanksgiving – Day 2: Harvest

CarolynCares Harvest Home

We are very thankful that we wrapped up harvest for 2013 on November 1st. This year was a tough corn harvest for us. We had a wind storm in September that blew down quite a bit of corn. We were more fortunate than some of our neighbors, and less fortunate than others. By the final day, we were down to a few acres of corn that just didn’t want to go through the combine. In spite of the annoyances that corn harvest brought, we are so thankful that the harvest was brought safely home.

Introduction to 30 Day Challenge

Day 1: Family

Author: Carolyn Olson

I grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis, MN. In 1988, I married my best friend and moved to the farm. Jonathan and I have three daughters, one son-in-law, and the most adorable granddaughter! I love life on the farm, and wouldn't trade it for anything!

  1. Colby D Miller – Saint Louis, MO – I spent all my formative years in rural northwest Missouri. I have a lot of appreciation for where I grew up, and at times I miss it terribly, but my dreams and desires call me away from small town life. However, just because I have left the farm, that doesn't mean that I don't like to stay connected to my roots. That's why I started the My Ag Life blog.

      I wish I were talented in the poetry department! It is part of a song, but I couldn’t verify the author.

          Thank you! I found many good poems about November and Thanksgiving. I sometimes take photos with a certain quote or poem in mind. Challenges me a bit in the photography department, which I need. 🙂

            That’s a really good idea! Sometimes I like to write something about a picture. I haven’t really done it the other way around

            It does make you look at things differently. You start thinking about composition of the photo before you even pick up the camera. It’s been fun so far!
