Yay, you are posting again. I was about to send Search and Rescue out to look for you. =)

That first photo is enchanting. I can’t stop looking at it.

I can’t imagine the faith it must take to be a farmer.

Beautiful pictures – the orchardists in our area do the very same thing, this type of weather occured here about a month ago. The losses were terrible – farming is never easy.

That first photo is just amazing. I understand the uncertainty…that life is never easy. Hope the crop is safe.

Thanks for your comments. These photos were taken about a month ago, but this sort of thing happens most years so we are still hoping for the best.

I’ve always read that this was the proper thing to do…freezing them like that. But the whole thing seems scary to me. The photos ARE beautiful.

wow – these are beautiful photos! I just hope this was a different year and not this year! We have had nice weather finally! It’s been nearly 2 years since I remember more than a few days of good weather.. It’s especially fun when you get the time to go out.

And I’d agree it to be the same in your neck of the woods.

Oh no! This didn’t happen THIS year, did it? Last year was a weather nightmare here for farmers; they lost all their strawberries, blueberries, apples were a washout . . .

This year, great abundance. And the trees put out an enormous amount of pollen, must be to make up for the drought and stress of last year.

So glad you are back blogging and also pleased to hear that the business side of things are going well. Your blog is such a nice place to visit, keep up the great work but only if you find time of course.
