Bowling With the Grandkids. |
Coming home was the reversal. We opted out of the toll roads in Illinois. Iowa and Nebraska ran straight across the country in descending greenness and Wyoming and Utah were depressingly smoggy due to the number of forest fires in the west--especially in the state of Washington. Yes, the smoke does travel that far.
Three days home and I get an emergency call from my youngest in tears because she needed helped after surgery so it was off to Maryland for two weeks. Guess the garden will have to wait.

I came home the second time in the middle of a bountiful harvest: tons of beans to freeze, tomatoes and peppers to make into salsa, dead ripe green grapes, cucumbers by the bushel and a waning zucchini crop, pears and apples falling on the ground and a tree full of large Asian pears. It was continuous preservation for a week and then off to Pocatello for my granddaughter's birthday. Whew.
Home again to more harvest which continues each day because of the warm/hot weather. Busy busy, busy.
Now my attention is turned to cleaning and organizing my home after my mission and summer extension of that mission. More on this later.

Altogether it has been a busy summer. The blog went into arrest and I now plan to get it up and running once again. Hold on. I can get this all together once again.
By the way, I spent many captive hours making jewelry while on the road--one benefit of a long, long drive. Lots to show.

Back to basics once again.
HAPPY DAY!
