More travels

In case I didn't mention it, the lovely Sharon and I went south again this weekend. This time even further than last weekend (just shy of 400 miles r/t), but over those very same roads as last week. I looked very carefully to see if we could find a place to pull off the road to view the fields of sunflower seeds. Sharon will vouch that the folks who grow them are quite inconsiderate. There was nary a spot anywhere near the fields unless we wanted to pretend we had a breakdown. On the return this afternoon we actually observed the harvesting of some lavender. Once again the field was poorly located.
I will also note that the scenery was even poorer this week than last as there was a really heavy haze... almost smog... hanging in the air due to the fires nearby and virtually no breeze to blow it away.
I did shoot some photos and will post them somewhere, soon.
No, I will not explain the reason for this trip, or the one we are taking on Tuesday.
