No pics. I'm sad. Will do better next time. The kids were cute helping pick apricots and swimming in the pool at G&G Hebdon's. Mud Mountain Dam was fun and refreshing. We still have 3 fish (round 3) that are living after 3 days. Cause for celebration!
You are a busy beaver! Last week I put up 12 jars of jam and 11 jars of syrup... Would have loved to be close enough to take some of your apricots! Better if we lived close enough to put them up together... anyway, glad your hands are doing better. Fun to read
ReplyDeletefor a minute there i thought you wrote preparing to perservere. i guess you know what is on my mind.:)
ReplyDeleteWOW!! What accomplishments! You will definitely enjoy that fruit later on. Lucky!
ReplyDeleteKristi Ann!!! You are amazing! I will someday be as good as you. I grew up doing stuff like that with my Mom but I just haven't found it in me to do it by myself.
