Both of my parents were born and raised in the Midwest. My mother grew up on a farm till college. And they both have great stories about their past on the farms. Such a homey feeling to know where your livestock and corn is your home. They had this saying on the farm.
“Knee high by the 4th of July”
Meaning if the corn was not knee high by then, the corn was not growing correctly.
Morning mist on the soon to be warm Iowa corn fields. With a stocky Midwestern built body, looking over corn fields of corn which all will all be eaten.
