MN Farmer Expresses Himself With Massive Manure Heart

Valentine's Day has come and gone this year, but a Minnesota farmer's expression of love is sure to keep his community talking for years to come. "The Albert Lea Tribune" reports that Bruce Andersland decided to forego roses for his wife, Beth, this Valentine's Day. Instead, the farmer opted to create a half-mile wide heart made from manure on his land. Andersland started with a vision that led to plans jotted down on paper. Then, using his manure spreader, Andersland fashioned the heart with an arrow through it late last week. Regarding the expression of love - which is visible from the sky as far as 12 miles southwest of the couple's farm - Beth Andersland said, quote, "Now I've got my Valentine! That's pretty cute."
