Virginia crops

Well, apparently Virginia corn hits a growth spurt somewhere along the line. Because there was definitely a lot of "knee high by the Fourth of July." I figure it's all the rain we've been having, and that it must have rained a lot while were were in North Carolina, because I noticed a marked difference when we got back from when we left.

Still the stalks seem unusually thin. Maybe it's a different kind than they plant in Ohio.

Plus, I'm used to walls of corn on either side of a road. (Used to be like riding down a corn tunnel when I'd go bike riding on the country roads where I grew up. And no, I've never seen Children of the Corn.)
