Amber Waves Of Grain



Wind racing through a wheat field outside of town yesterday. Cutting has begun here about three weeks earlier than normal. Last year the first load of grain brought into a local grain elevator was on June twenty-ninth. Corn that is normally planted around the fourth of July has been in the ground since May. Three tornadoes, high winds, and hail the size of tennis and basketballs baseballs reported in Eastern Colorado yesterday has me wondering what the heck is going on with the weather this year.
