So, across from our house on the opposite site of the gravel road there is (was) a huge corn field. We have been able to watch it grow during the time we moved into our new house in June. As Fall started to come the corn stalks turned brown and looked so pretty with the colorful leaves falling. We got so used to the corn there that we didn't want them to harvest it! But, we also were very excited because we knew we could watch the whole process up close for as long as we liked. It started last Monday when my siblings and I were raking leaves outside. We heard a noise coming from down the road, when we looked, it was a combine coming to harvest the field! It was amazing to watch it harvest all of that corn! Harvesting a corn field is a long process. It took them 1 1/2 days to finish. Now that the corn is all harvested it feels so weird to drive past or look out our living room windows because now it's so bare and just a big empty piece of land!
