Change Is Hard

On the road again

As some of you have figured out I’m away from home. I took an opportunity to spend a few days with family down in Alabama.

I couldn’t resist stopping when the wheat was golden in the morning light.

And though I could have flown and made the trip South faster, I chose to drive, because I love to drive and I enjoy seeing whatever there is to see along the way.

And to find a wheat field AND a barn…well….of course I stopped!

This trip went easier than my last trip in November. The road didn’t seem so long, nor the traffic so busy. Not to say there weren’t the normal amounts of stress getting through Indianapolis and Nashville and especially Birmingham Alabama.

I appreciated the art of a farmer’s tracks through rolling fields of grain.

But Sunday morning as I left my hotel in Bowling Green Kentucky I noticed the wheat fields were ripening and the early light was making them glow.

I’m just a sucker for an old barn.

All day Saturday I hadn’t stopped for a single photo. I even managed to resist the exit I’ve been lured into by photogenic barns the last three times I’ve driven down.

I went around a big country block to get this one.

So I thought it was only fair that I take thirty minutes and find a barn or two in wheat fields.

Eventually, last Sunday, I made it here to one of my happy places.

I hope you enjoy.
