Pruning day

Jack Pruning

Ed and I took a field trip to Elbridge and Auburn. The first stop was Owen's Orchards where we sampled the lastest crop of apples: mcintosh (macintosh!) and honeycrisp. So good. We have inside information that macintosh are peaking over the next two weeks, so get some! We also got some corn stalks and hay and 5 big pumpkins for the Lynch's front porch. I picked up some spaghetti and acorn squash to enjoy this week. Yum.

We finally made it over to Jack's house to help with some pruning in the yard. We were late enough to interrupt his dinner (sorry!), but quickly got to work and soon made the overgown brush into a stump. Then we hit the other side of the house and trimmed down a couple of other untamed shrubs. With Jack's help we were done in good time. He was kind enough to treat us to dinner. Thanks Pops Racer! And thanks Ed!
