I spent the whole summer traveling America and Canada for work, I didn't have many days off but every now and again I was able to snap a photo, even though it wasn't as much as I hoped for.

Above is a bayou in Louisiana, 90 degrees with 90 percent humidity. Not to many pictures from the south because while one of us was kayaking getting data in the water the other was on Alligator look out! And we saw some, so its a good thing I was paying attention and not taking pictures!

Corn.jpg

This is one of the many corn fields I saw while working. Corn fields are beautiful and memorizing with the perfect rows, but they scare me because thats how you get murdered, walking around alone in a cornfield....or at least thats how it happens in scary movies. 

Corn is one of the biggest cash crops in America, farmers who plant corn get paid a small reward to buy corn and paid again when the corn is harvested. Most corn in America is genetically modified and not actually meant for human consumption, its made to be a part of animal feed or processed into sugars. Corn also leaches a lot of nutrients from soils so farmers tend to rotate corn fields some seasons into soy bean field so give the soil a break and let it replenish nutrients so the field can be productive longer.

This Church was on the Ottawa River in Canada, it was beautiful and I don't know much about it because all the information signs where in french...all I know is that they have public bathrooms inside and we stopped here everyday for obvious reasons while surveying this river.

I wanted to end this post with a sunset on the Saint Lawrence River in Canada, for no other reason than it is beautiful and and the river was calm that day giving a nice reflection upon the water.
