If you flood it they will come.

It's been a damp, dreary, chilly week with periods of rain and showers, some of which have been quite heavy. Looks like more of the same predicted for this week. While out and about this morning I went past my "Field of Dreams." There is a farm, a former dairy farm but they no longer have any cows, with a large field that they still use for haying. Hay is a pretty good crop around here as the old farms are fast disappearing and it is becoming harder and harder to find people who still raise hay and sell it. One of the reasons I no longer have horses and goats. This particular field often floods after heavy rains. In fact it fills up so much sometimes that it virtually becomes a lake. Sure enough as I drove past this morning there were several large, wide expanses of water spread out over the field. It wasn't completely flooded as I've seen it before, but it certainly would have given a body a thoroughly nice soaking. It's always been my dream to stop the car, get out and run through that flooded field with the water splashing up and soaking my jeans and clothes. And if I tripped and happened to fall down with a giant splash and get completely wet from head to toe - well, that would be just terrible.

Of course I've never gone running across that flooded field and probably never will. It's in plain view of the farmhouse and I would probably get arrested, maybe even shot at. Farmers don't take kindly to people tearing up their hay fields. Any damage I managed to do would probably be very minimal, but never the less I am sure it would not be appreciated. It's also right next to a major road where the whole world could see me. It's also too cold. I keep telling myself these things to help me resist my compulsion to leap out of the car and dash madly through that flooded field full tilt and taking a dive. So I drove on, wishing and wanting just as I have so many times.

Who knows? Maybe someday I will get my chance. For now I can only dream. But if they ever flood it and open it to the public I will definitely come.
