Pickles and a Couple Other Things

Image
I got around to making 21 jars of pickles this year. Just your basic garlic dills and I made a few pints of dilled carrots as well. This should b enough for us to eat as well as be able to give away a few as gifts. Yes, pickles make great gifts. When A&W had their MS support day, we went out and each of us enjoyed our Teenburgers. It was very busy in there! Crushy has been going downhill. His mood has been good and he's eating fine. But, he coughs a lot more and wheezes often. Sometimes, he even pants, which is very hard to watch. He still seems to be enjoying life though and so we continue to give him medicine and plenty of Love.

Harvest Beginnings

Harvest has now officially started because I had dinner in the field with Todd. It turned into a 2 and a half hour affair when I had to drive him out to help Glen who is harvesting the peas and trying to operate the new straight-cut header.  It's not going very well for him.  Hopefully he catches on before he causes any major, expensive damage.  Slowly adding jars of pickles to the cold room. Going out to clean off the peas. The garden in the evening, just after sunset.
