Gearing up for the County Fair has me working half of each day this week. Thats me, having a rest from the concrete floors. This year, our entries are up by 42%!!!! Last year we had 944 entries. This year, there are 1343 entries. Looks like canning is resurging in importance.

The wind blew one of our apple trees over - its was a long twig three years ago when we bought it from Stark. Now its about 5' tall and the vineyard stretchy tape broke, which was anchoring it to a flimsy stake. Luckily it didn't break so we propped it up and used a t-post and more of the...

I am devastated by the loss.

Its a Calif King comforter. Heavy stuff!

Thanks, @Hinotori. I'm going to Freddys and Safeway today. I'll check.
