Tree trimming

Eighteen apple trees trimmed; eighty-two more to go. A neighbor stopped by our house this spring to ask if we would be interested in maintaining his orchard in exchange for the harvest. So, on Saturday evening my parents, Aaron and Lauren Mae grabbed clippers and headed a few miles down the road to subdue rows of apple trees.

  1. What a blessing of apples! Is this the same neighbor with the blueberry farm? If you need any help consuming that harvest, just let me know!:-)
