My posts are slowing down…considerably. Here is one reason (forthcoming pears will be another reason…busy, busy, busy):
Fairhavens are juicy and sweet. These are gonna be fabulous this winter!
Anyone want to guess how many quarts 100 lbs. of peaches will be?

It is always good to slow down and take a walk once in a while. It refreshes body and soul and one never knows what one might discover.

A crab spider hiding out in the phlox (she is so clever with her camouflage):
And a pine beetle:
I think the dent in the beetle’s wing casing was caused by an adventurous kitten.
What discoveries have you made on your walks?
