Back in the field

I sampled a bunch of small fields today.  I unloaded and loaded the 4 wheeler 6 times.   The customer I worked on farms some of the roughest land in Jersey County.  He is a dedicated no-tiller.  The field below is a beautiful place to work.  It is a mile long and 200 to 500 feet wide.  I always see interesting wildlife, trees, and deer stands when I work here.  Weeds are coming up fast.  I picked up some apples nearby at Joe Ringhausen Orchard.  One of his varieties is Firm Gold.  My favorite.  I also found some more persimmons.  The ripe ones on  the ground were mostly protected by a blackberry thicket.
