The canola is glorious right now. Every day it gets more intense. That yellow is the colour of happy. It's the time of year when a good number of the prairie population has its fingers crossed that Mother Nature will work for us rather than against us. We need rain, but not too much. We need heat, but not too much, We definitely don't need hail or a plague of grasshoppers. And no tornadoes. The summer is a bit of a nail biter around here and we always hope the best for our farmers. Fingers crossed for the great bumper crops of 2017!

Hi Nicki,

I wish the farmers and the painters a perfect summer and bounteous crop.
We have had a lot of rain here. I hope it isn't hurting the crops. The garden
loves it.

XOXOXOXOXO Barbara
