Raving Amicks

Used my X-mas present twice. Helps make great pizza. Ya’ need lots of cornmeal evenly spread out under the dough to make sure it slides off cleanly. Thanks Mindy & Tyler!

Neal Creek is almost frozen over and Hood River is like 99% frozen over. My grapefruit trees are in the garage loving the space heater. When it’s the coldest, it’s probably like 35 degrees aroud the trees.

On Tues. am (10/13) it snowed and stuck here at the house. Melted after about an hour, but it’s a harbinger of winter. (Harbinger was a character in what movie)?

My apple trees are full of apples. Most are blemish and bug free, even though they are organic. One is a Braeburn and the other is a Fuji (although I can’t tell which is which).

My peach tree finally came in. After Brewster ate all the low-hanging peaches, we are finally eating peaches. They are really good, but they give you the runs!

Nice peach pie your Mom made, too!

Not a great picture (I was in the car driving) of a dawn rainbow south of Portland . Never seen anything like this (of course, I’m not up at dawn very often). It was just beginning to get light (6:32 am) and the sun wasn’t even visible. What you don’t see is that the rainbow was complete. Amazing!
