Even the weather was lovely today. The Sunday School had a picnic after church today. We had barbecued sliders, brautwurst and hot dogs provided by SS, augmented with chips and salads brought by everyone else.
Since it was so nice -- warm but not miserably hot -- we were able to sit outside in the shade and visit while the children and the more energetic (translation younger) adults played games. We had a chance to chat for an extended period of time with some of the folks we don't often get to talk to very often.
About four o'clock we drove on down to the ranch to visit with the family that leases our place. We had a good visit with both Jeff and Barb. Their two boys were out on the tractors, but we talked long enough that we got to see them when they came in as well. They were just little guys when they moved to the ranch, but now they are both big strapping handsome young men. Tyler will be a senior in high school this fall while Colby will be returning to Walla Walla Community College.
I found out who our corn angel was last week. Thank you, Gene!
We lucked out again today as we brought home sweet corn, cucumbers, new potatoes and zucchini from Barb and Jeff's garden along with a dozen fresh eggs from their chickens. Looks like we will be eating very well again this week!
Dont'cha just love the friends who bless us with the 'fruit of their labors'?
ReplyDeleteWe were given a big bag of plums from a friend which I made into some yum-o plum sauce!
