Day 45: Here and There and This and That in the Bottom of Texas

On a recent drive through the countryside we saw what we thought was a building fire.  When we drove into town a few miles away small pieces of burned plant fiber were falling out of the sky.

We discovered that the smoke was from a sugar cane field that had deliberately been set on fire.  Burning the dry leaves makes harvesting easier on the picking machines.  Burning like this is illegal in California.

Here is a sugar cane field before harvest.

On a recent visit by the Smokers we saw this vehicle for sale.  Here Phil tries it on for size.  Question: Is it a car or motorcycle???

On Saturday Bill and Karen hired Ricardo to wash and wax our trailer.  He brought his eleven-year old son to help and they did a great job.  Edgewater is shining like a new penny now.

On Saturday night we went to a concert here at Sun N' Fun.  It was called "Eagles Tribute" and they played only songs by The Eagles.  The group was very talented and put on a great show for a big audience.
