I've managed to get a ride in for three days straight, although yesterday's ride was brief; Cliff and the boys were disking and harrowing in the pasture, and I saddled Blue up and hopped on in my shorts and barefoot; you can't go far that way without rubbing blisters on your ankles. Blue and I went alongside the tractor for awhile, and Cliff happened to have the camera with him.
We love apples, but I sure got tired of paying $1.50 a pound for them; and the taste leaves something to be desired when you buy them in the store, too. Today we traveled east a few miles and picked up some Galas at the orchard. It's a beautiful day for getting out and doing that sort of thing.
As you can see, they were doing a steady business. I got a bushel of lovely Gala apples for $15.50, and a bag of Red Delicious for $5.
It's been a great weekend, and it'll be tough going back to work tomorrow, knowing I'll be working next Saturday. But I'll manage, and I need the extra money anyhow: My dog needs spaying, and my horse is about due for some new shoes.
Oh yeah don't forget to get that horse new shoes. That will be more appreciated then the dog I would think. Paula
