Onions

when i was younger i ran on most mornings.
in onion fields down a narrow road.

every winter they harvested the crop and stored it - i was fascinated - yes everything smells like onions but i was fascinated by their storage huts - i found a photo on the web

you could even buy it off the fields - for about Rs 10-15 for a 20kg bag.

As i visited my childhood home one of these days i drove down the same road - no longer narrow - now a 4 lane high traffic road.

there were no traces of onions, storage huts or even the fields. concrete everywhere - the farmers (or middle men) have made a lot of progress...
