Kaia and I left for The Little House at 6:30 a.m., and even at that hour Highway 494, on the south edge of Minneapolis was stop and go for awhile. Apparently there's some bridge construction that closes a lane of traffic. Highway 62, that parallels 494 a few miles north, has been clogged with traffic all week. 62 is two lanes either direction and even mid-day it's been slow and go as it absorbs traffic from 494. It's tempting to complain about road construction but smooth roads without obstacles are also priority. Best not to complain.
Traffic in Sinai is free flowing with movement at posted speeds, or above. 😀 Kaia got a brief run in the field as we checked on the progress of the corn. Brown lawns along the route testify to the dry conditions.

The green between the rows is waterhemp, which germinates late and is impervious to Roundup. These wide rows, spaced 38", don't shade the ground very quickly allowing weeds to sprout. Why 38"? To allow horses pulling cultivators space to walk, and my planter is old. Lake Joanne is in the background.
