Soils, Syncopations, Solitude

Anna the farmer

Anna helped do some scouting this morning and had a very nice time. We first checked on the sprinkler.

Then we went over to (Gray) "County!" to look at the dryland corn.
Anna insisted on helping with the ball probe.
Here Anna demonstrates the incorrect use of the ball probe. The ball probe gives you some idea of the soil moisture. The little steel ball on the end goes easily through soil with adequate moisture in it, but won't go through dry soil.

This is what you want to see, and it made Daddy very happy.

Anna could totally hang out with you at work. I'm sure there are a lot of papers that could use some colors and pictures of girls. And at court, all you have to do is tell her "say ...." So you would just tell Anna, "say objection" and Anna would say "jet-tion!" No judge can overrule that!
