Peach Harvest 2011

This last weekend we went down to the Tri-cities to help with the yearly peach harvest.

I love it. Jake bares it.



Here are some peaches waiting to be skinned and sliced.

(Yes that one at the top has been picked a bit by the birds)


This was our production line. A peeler, a slicer, and a bagger!



After mixing in the Fruit Fresh and some sugar they get bagged.



A close up of scrumptiousness.


Final stage - bagged and frozen!

A nice self portrait of Jimmy and I.

John and Sally

(This seems to be the best picture I have of the two. Next time I'll try not to snap the picture in mid conversation.)



It was a nice get away. A nice break from the daily grind. A nice visit with the family.



Next adventure: maybe some more camping, the start of school, or the Muddy Buddy.

We'll see.
