I keep telling myself as the years go by that I should go to Farm Aid. They have a GREAT lineup this year for a great cause. We need our farmers. We depend on them. My tomatoes in my backyard are pictured above but hey I need food all year! Oh yeah I just took this picture moments ago…
Here is a story sent to me from the John Mellencamp e-mail newsletter. And I will plug his fan club. It is a good one. If you are a fan you need to join this one.
