Tractor

ByMaria

In November of 2009, my birthday gift was a vacation in California. We took a road trip starting from San Diego to the north up to Sequioa National Park. Along the way, I enjoy looking at the sceneries especially big farms with red barns. I always wondered why the barns are colored red. Anyways, once in a while you’ll see a tractor I believe is a John Deere and I felt good somehow because these tractors are what made America great I think. Modern equipments like this has made farming easier and so more productive. I am glad to be a part of this. As a gardener, I don’t mind having one of this if I have a big farm.

    I almost always have surprise every time I go to the garden. There’s the cat and the kittens and this time it’s a toad and it is big too. I always wonder how the soil in my potted eggplant gets disturbed every time as if something is scratching it and leaves an indentation. Then one…
