Ohio Farm Land

 Good morning,

These images are from a mini road trip we took North of Cincinnati.
 Ohio has land that is perfect for farming:  flat, rich soil, and usually excellent weather.
 We were short on rain this past summer, but not quite as bad as areas West of us.
 It's just beautiful to be out here again. 
 There are many family farms and some large commercial farms.
 The Ohio State University was one of the first to have agricultural education.
 Here's one of many beautiful old farm homes just North of Cincinnati.

Enjoy,
Lois

    That is beautiful flat farmland Lois! It looks like the prairies but it's not far enough west for that is it? I love the flat land and all the sky. Beautiful!

    Lovely blue skies. It's so good for the soul to visit the country...or even better, live in it. :))

    Flat. Rich. Treeless. And without all of the boulders that made New Englanders flee here and move there to farm 150 years ago.
