Detasseling
Oh, joy, my son is detasseling...which means getting up at 5am to take him to the pickup point by 6am. Today, he added his pal to be picked up on the way, add another 15 minutes earlier to get up, leave, etc.
I'm thankful I can drive, thankful I don't have to be the one going out in the 90 degree weather with 90% humidity and tromp through a cornfield pulling corn tassels and trying to keep my balance while trudging along with mud caked on my bootss.
This sort of thing is best suited for the teenager/early 20's people.
I have a hard time just being outside away from A/C. I don't know how I ever made it while growing up without A/C. Yes, I'm a wuss and a whimp. I can't take the heat like I did when a kid.
