Myers family

Today we went to my cousin Cathy's son Scott's house for a cook out.  It was good to see aunt Phyllis and uncle Herman, cousins Cathy, Penny, Tim, Linda, Gordon, and Beverly and some of their children and grand children.

Does everything have to come ripe at the same time?

These last two weeks have been super busy with canning, freezing and dehydrating.
Tomatoes, broccoli, corn, elderberries, apples, pears and mushrooms.  The dehydrator is going all the time with something in it.  I am canning or freezing almost everyday.

 

 

Tomorrow we do pears and maybe corn.  My canning room is almost filled.  My freezers are full.  My basement refrigerator is full.

Apple Picking

I took advantage of Brad being here to get all the apples picked for apple sauce and juice.  He used the picker on top the big daddy gator bed so he could reach high up for the apples.

 

I put the apples on the front porch because I didn't want any fruit flies in the house.  I was not going to can them for a couple of days.

 

I joked about a bear finding them on the front porch.  Well guess who showed up Saturday night.

 

He is eating the apples that were too small or split that we put out for the deer.  He did not go on the porch but he did get my bird feeder and cracked it.
