Sunny

Today was sunny so I was pretty busy working outside all day.  Nothing really exciting, but a good day.

I started out by picking enough raspberries and huckleberries to finish out the last batch of jam of the season...the raspberries and huckleberries were good to me this year.


The ducks are in the garden now....they make good company for me while I pull weeds.  I found some volunteer potatoes hiding in the weeds. They aren't very big but they are SO delicious!


 The ground is really saturated with water right now because we have had some tremendous rainfall the last week.  But today was gorgeous! 

Here is a basket I made last weekend.

 
Just a couple more basket orders to fill this week and then it's over until next year!
