    'Drops,' the freewill offering of apple trees

    Old island apple trees, along with their counterparts on the mainland, have outdone themselves this year.

    Yes, it is 'so much work'

    Sometimes I suspect that the word “work” is code for “paying attention” and “spending time.”

  • Erin with botchy
    September 24

    The world came to me this summer, via WWOOFers

    They worked, smart phones at their sides, talked with each other incessantly, laughing. I loved it.

    My June 'to do' list
