Illinois Farmland
20150526-_DSC6285
The purpose of this photo is to show farmland in the midwestern U.S. South of town this farmland goes on for hundreds of miles. Grassy swaths running through the fields are drainage paths for heavy rains when the soil is saturated with water. The bit of green in the foreground amidst the stubble of last year's crop are corn plants which are up a couple inches. This is a big operation, as there are three tractors in the photo.
The area south of Oswego at Schlapp and Cherry Roads may look flat to most people, but to those of us who live here it's hilly. It's all relative.
