Ran errands yesterday in the P/U. The roadsides are really looking lovely; wildflowers everywhere and the pecan trees are leafing out as proof of warm days to come. Today I had to cover the same ground by two wheels. Too beautiful out to do otherwise. The route was east of home toward Wayne County where the sweet onions are being harvested now, filling the air with their aroma. Red clover is at it's peak now also, lining many roads and covering fields.

Strolling in the clover.

Tractors at an onion field have just finished turning up the crop for harvest.

Here, the onions are being placed in boxes then loaded on to flat bed trucks and taken to cold storage.

Time to head to Patterson for a haircut before going home for lunch with Sparky.
