That I’ve been busy this sum mer is no secret. The weather has made everything grow including the weeds. Only when my hus band decided to defrost one freez er did I see all of my 200 quarts of 1992 produce in one big box. There are still peaches, pears and plums to can plus lots of com to freeze.

Yesterday we picked strawberries from Allen’s ever-bearing plants. They are a nice respite from blueberries and more blueberries.

Lan caster’s last event to celebrate its 2Soth birthday was a large display of fireworks held at Long’s Park. So I persuaded Allen to go along.
