It's Monday and there was a crew out again raking pine needles. I chatted with the manager a bit and he commented that they had cleaned them ALL up just last Thursday. The pile over on the edge of the campground is now over seven feet tall and maybe twenty-five feet long. He did say that they have found that they can be taken to the Waste-to-Energy incinerator. The local composting plant will not take them as there is gravel mixed in (from raking the needles off the roads). The manager said that now that he knows that, next year he'll make separate stacks of the needles from the roads and needles from the grass. That way more of them can be recycled.
We made an appointment this afternoon with our new insurance agent for crop insurance, making sure that all of our property in Adams County is covered even though it is not all farmed by the same tenant. From there we headed for the grocery store. It seems we are always out of fresh fruit as well as Forry's favorite breakfast sandwiches.
With the end of the Mariners 2014 season, we now are free in the evenings to see what is new on TV for the fall season. Tonight we saw the first episode this year of Castle -- what a strange show it was!
