I was looking at some of my farm and barn images of the Northwest and was enjoying the beauty of our rural landscape. Even though in these images you see the beauty of a farming life, you don't see the work farmers do in working and preparing the land just to supply us with quality food we all enjoy. You don't see the harsh weather conditions, the 24/7 work and pressure there is in making sure the fields are ready before the planting season is upon them. The reason I bring this up is that I was up in Skagit County yesterday and was shooting the Snow Geese that migrate up to Canada and was chilled to the bone. And yet in this cold, wind chilled environment farmers were still at work fixing trackers and making sure their farm animals were fed and safe. Much appreciation for all people that work this beautiful land we call America.
