Summer harvest


Yesterday the Hood Farm field across the road from our house was relieved of its hay burden, as happens at this time every year. It is fun to watch the bales being thrown from the bailer into the hay wagon. This year the "catcher and stacker" was female -- don't mess with her!

It is also berry season and we have had a very good crop of currants, raspberries, and blueberries. Nikki and Cokie Lindsay are picking the blueberries which are excellent this year. I'm sure Cokie has a great recipe for bacon and blueberry something or other which I hope she will share -- and I don't mean the recipe. :)
