Harvesting for winter
Joyce has zucchini plants to end all Zucchini plants the leaves are more than a foot wide and they have Zucchini's by the bunch. We are picking and storing, now we will make that wonderful relish, with green peppers and red peppers, just for color I think. We have been to town gathering various spices and we are going for the grinding soon as we get done helping the neighbors and wall papering a friend's just acquired trailer he lives in it so it should be nice we think. Then there is the winter wood, we have two cords split and stacked, but there is more, from the National Forest and then a blow down in our woods we need to harvest plus a couple of trees our son Tim had fell for us before he passed away. The harvest also include the flowers. I like the lilies and they are all finished blooming now but the wild flowers are in their glory and soon the marigolds will bloom and it will be football season, since I am not a football fan the flowers let me know from high school days marigolds recall the memories of the fall football games. That does not seem to make any sense as I read it back but sometimes I don't make much sense, but I enjoy life and the blessing of the Lord every day. The Lord works in wondrous ways and continues to bless us each day. I think we will done with phase one of the wood harvest in a couple of days. We do want to go on vacation one of these days and so must have the har vest finished before we leave. Our friend is watching our house this year as we have our vacation, she says "it will be like camping in the woods" and it is in the woods. I must be off on today's project helping Joyce wall paper a trailer. then there is church tomorrow. Bless all of you. Jack and Joyce
