The Farm - Valley City-Litchville

We arrived at the farm and have a great spot for our motorhome - Dick's cousin gave us full hook-ups including wi-fi (no more trying to find a library or other means of internet service).
Dick is working with his cousins bringing in the corn and soybeans. He works from 8:00 am to 9:30 pm at night (not bad for someone who is retired). He is in seventh heaven being at the farm and working with his cousins.

Dakota and I stay busy - we go for two walks a day among the corn and open fields. When it is not threatening rain the sky is beautiful. We have had a couple beautiful sunsets.

Yesterday I ventured to drive the country roads to visit Dick's cousin who is the Postmaster at the Litchville Post Office and then I went to town to buy groceries and since you can't buy your liquor at the market and I went to the liquor store for wine and gin. It is very relaxing amtosphere.

Today I am taking lunch out to the guys in the field. They have a hot lunch at noon and then eat again whenever they make it back in the evening.
