65

So blessed 

A beautiful evening to celebrate 

65 years

Lots of people came out 

Still 22C at midnight 

And rain overnight, an extra blessing 

 

High pressure canning

I borrowed a canner, it’s super noisy 

 

Canning beans

Mostly slicing beans this time

18 jars fit in it at one time

 We will have to taste them to see if it’s worthwhile 

Gym

If I miss lift in the evening I try to go

To a workout in the morning 

We were with 10 and everyone was

Working with a partner at 5 different 

Stations

 

Sunsets

Beautiful sunsets 

Looked like rain yesterday , but it didn’t come

 

Church at the Fair

shade was important

prayer before the service

It was hot, but it was good to have a community service

Manure

The wheat field is filled

And now it’s around our place

Good stuff but it smells 

 

Esmee

She’s growing fast

So sweet

This one is from today 

 

3rd cut

Monday cut

Tuesday harvest, merging 

And harvesting 

Filling silo

Good stuff 

 

Community church

We went to Palmerston 

Community church in the park

Community choir

We talked with lots of people 

Sat with friends 

We even had lunch

Traditional scouting booth

Handcar races

 

Mealtime

De guys went shopping 

And started cooking

Together 

While Olga and I made shade in the patio

Time to eat, it was yummy 

Teaching swoop card game

 

A good month for corn

3 weeks and 3 days make a difference

 

Our tree

Last Thursday evening there was a lot of wind

Quite a few trees in our neighborhood were damaged 

At the farm there were lots of branches to pick up

But at our place a big branch broke off

Lots of cleanup now and in the near future 

Because the tree has a rotten core

It has to go, we’re sad about that
