Knee High by the 4th of July

And there are actually some corn crops around here that are. It's kind of amazing, really - we had so much rain this spring that farmers were concerned they wouldn't be able to get crops in in time. Just a month ago, the fields were pretty much mud flats and ponds, not even tilled yet. We finally got enough sun to dry them out and while a lot of corn crops aren't very tall yet, some of them have already caught up. Good to see. (Also, due to all the rain, everyone has really thick, lush, green lawns. Very nice!)

(I had a photo of a local cornfield to put here but can't figure out how to do it from my phone.)
