Time to Plant

Ben spent a lot of time in this tractor planting corn in the past week.
 The boys must have missed him, because they fought over who could ride along. It was bewildering to me and Ben that they were fighting over this...since planting isn't the most interesting field work to watch. The boys have both learned that tractor rides require snacks, so they come prepared!
 I'm always impressed by the technology and precision of farm equipment,
 at 5 mph, a seed and a bit of fertilizer get put down at just the right depth, with just the right amount of dirt covering it.
I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I wish the seeds in my garden could be planted like that...
