That groundhog really blew it this year. Not only did spring not come early this year (as he predicted), it arrived about six weeks
later than normal! But it's mid-May now, and the waited for season has finally arrived.

"Barn in Wild Turnips" |

"Old Allis" |
These photographs were taken in Hartsburg, just north of Peace Church. The owner of the barn had commented to me last winter that I didn't have any images of his barn among my work, and invited me to take some anytime I wanted. It's such a charming little barn, nestled against the bluffs, that I couldn't resist! The old Allis-Chalmers WD45 sits nearby, resting up. This field was planted in turnips last fall, and they went to seed -- which provided a sea of tiny yellow blooms in the spring.
