Default A warm evening, a grass strip, and thou....

Right off the end of the runway? How could I miss it? One guy
clipped the tassles of the corn as he made a low fast approach in his
homebuilt.


Actually, I was commenting about the fact that in Iowa, it seems that
everywhere there are cornfields.


You got that right! We just returned from a flight to Davenport from
Iowa City, and I can vouch for the fact that there is huge, lush,
beautiful, tassling corn literally everywhere between here and there.

It's quite a sight, at this time of year, viewing the breadbasket of
the world from above...
