Almost Done
I am planting this corn today and tomorrow, and will probably finish this weekend, at the latest. That’s my last seasonal planting until late September.
It’s a long-forgotten variety called Papago, a soft grinding corn. My friend Dave Christiansen sent it to me from up in Montana. It’s the last line of this corn held by anybody, as far as we know, in the US and probably the world.
It is very drought-tolerant, incredibly insect and disease resistant, short day, and productive. It’s crucial I finally get it in.
As soon as I finish, I will do the last 2 dynamics.
A lot has happened since we last talked. Not least of all the King is Dead. And no, I don’t mean Michael Jackson, Steve McNair, Arturo Gatti, or anyone else. I mean Walt Schaeffer, THE King, he who developed my website. Walt shot himself last month. Another sad victim of this financial breakdown in our towns and communities.
We’ll yak friends, amongst our grief, sadness, uncertainty, anger and frustrations. We’ll yak soon.
