apple picker

More apples dried, hard cider racked and drink ready, more cider started, a tire plugged and the Wise roof- a fresh coat of black sealer on it. I'm overloaded with ripe tomatoes and still have highly productive and more than I can eat of 2 varieties of chard. The native tobacco has bloomed so now I can try and I.D. it for sure. I traded a jug of just started hard cider for more local grown chemical free (organic- but I can't use that word as the government took ownership of it)apples. I may have to cook the apples down to sauce as I have too many to put up by drying. I made an offer on the Colorado place but I hear my offer was not accepted and a counter is coming. So be it. Oh- and I made an apple picker with an extension handle.
