I didn't feel like getting going early today, I did yesterday as was the first morning here. Today after a night of heartburn keeping me awake, I don't have the same jump. Going to be a little cloudy today forecast says, so I'll go after I write today.
My subject today is how when we travel I see so much I can't take a photo of, I can't stop as the shoulder of the road has no pull outs, and the scenes I see go by just not able to get pictures of. On Sunday when we drove here from Chesapeake Virginia, the sights we wonderful.
Cotton in huge and small field's is something that excited us both, because on our way to Chesapeake we saw the same, and no pull outs where it was. The other crop we saw was Peanuts 🥜 Fields of Peanuts 🥜🥜🥜, so many of them. Not as nice looking as cotton, but still interesting for me. Of course I'd like to see how they harvest them?
Polly tried to get a few photos of the cotton all bailed up in huge round bails. I just asked her to send to me, yep she got 2, not as prolific a photographer as I am😂
Not as interesting as the cotton on the branches in the field's. As for the peanuts, never saw one field harvested.
The last thing here i did notice being grown and harvested is trees, pine trees. Many trees plantations here, really healthy pine forest's, all private land I'm told, and well taken care of. I didn't take any photos of these either.
Also on our way I noticed and pointed out to Polly the marshes, and flooded areas here, the water table close to the surface, roads most all raised above the surrounding ground, with huge ditches. I really like looking into the bayos here in the South, so different from where we grew up.
Is quite and peaceful this morning, just writing and drinking a coffee ☕. I'm going to go for a walk now, take my second cup with me, see what I can see here that's New to me, meet another friend, see another sight! Birds here are different, some I saw yesterday are red, I'm on the lookout for few more of them, camera ready. Squirrel's are all about here too.
Still have yet to pick out next place to stay, and we leave tomorrow. I like that way of traveling here, a little nonchalant, no big hurry no big deal! I think the saying is mañana, tomorrow.
Love this quiet, love our life ❤️
