REAL POTATOES!

ok, so I thought that I would show you all what a REAL potatoe should look like. My grandpa grows these and other stuff too, but potatoes are his specialty. I went to the storages with him today and we got some for Christmas dinner. It has been snowing like crazy here! I love it!


Grandpa getting all the potatoes. This storage is HUGE and holds 15,000 tons of potatoes. My grandpa owns 6 storages, all filled with those potatoes. So the next time you eat a french frie, you could be eating Moses Lake, Washington potatoes!


Lots of potatoes....


This is a pretty average sized potatoe for here. Not whimpy, thats for sure!


This is just the little gate that we climb through to get to the top of the mound...


Me. Its still snowing and its so much fun! It's suposed to snow all week and then just be cold. I should be able to get some good sledding in.


This was taken from the storage. Its looking out onto one of my grandpa's feilds. Normally this will have wheat or corn or potatoes in it, but as you can see, its only snow, snow, and more snow.
