Description
One day, I was driving my then 2 year old son to daycare. Each day, the half hour ride would take us past farm after farm, and fields filled with sheep, goats, and cattle. Cotton fields were also a familiar sight.
I said to my son, 'take a good look around and try to remember this, one day it will all be gone'.
Fast forward 25 years.
Unfortunately, my prediction was correct. Oh, a stray field survives here and there, but for the most part, much of the agricultural land was sold to developers who paid a pretty penny for the acres and acres of farmland.
I don't blame the farmers for selling, nor do I resent the builders for building. I live in one of those new homes, but I do miss the fields and the animals.
I took a photograph of a cornfield a few years ago. That field is gone but I've painted this one as a tribute to its memory.
One less cornfield in Gilbert, Arizona.
