(This is my entry for the first part of my project for my New Learning course that I am taking.) Introduction Corn Fields in Illinois I have lived the majority of my life in the Midwest: mid-state Illinois to be specific. Where I live, farming is everywhere. My grandparents and great-grandparents on both sides of my family were farmers. My dad grew up on a farm and owned farmland, well into my own adulthood. But, even if it wasn’t in the family, I still would have been surrounded by farming. You can’t go more than a mile outside of my city’s limits without encountering miles and miles of fields. Most of our highways, and even interstates, are located between acres of farmland.

ReplyDeleteYou guys haven't changed a bit! Char, you're beautiful as ever -- Matt, don't see any gray in that beard, yet!
I better go, my wife will get suspicious that I'm telling some woman on the internet that she's beautiful... You can check us out at my website -- but I'm not as faithful blogging as you are!
hey. just stopped by to tell you that I have NOT fallen off of the face of the earth and I am glad to see that you all haven't either. Said a quick prayer for you today. I hope you have a wonderul break! :)
