Crop Duster

 Have you ever been really close to a crop duster?  You can't not watch them.  The potential for disaster seems so high that you just HAVE to keep watching.  This plane was "dusting" the wheat fields around the farm with fungicide earlier this week.  Check out how low the pilot has that plane!
 From our perspective it seemed like he barely made it up over the trees
 and then back down again to finish off the field.
 All evening the plane was somewhere near the farm, dusting one field after another.
 It's  not every day that an airplane is zooming around so close to us.  The boys were so excited they insisted on eating supper outside so they could keep tabs on the plane.

  1. Ha! Reminds me of when the crop dusters are out in our area. :) It is an amazing thing to watch--just annoying when they are flying over during nap time! But Braden loves watching them.
