You know who I feel sorry for right now?

Farmers

Its gotta suck to watch a good crop come up in the field. Nice conditions in the spring and summer to grow a crop. First some rain, to get things going, and then a period of good, warm heat to ripen it and make it ready.

So they go out, like they always do. Cut down the straw and prepare for the harvest.

And then it rains.

A lot.

Inches at a time.

I don't know much about farming, but all those thick swathes that I used to see as I drove along, are awfully damn sad looking now. I hope they can salvage something from this season.
