Peach pickin'


What a wonderful day. We headed up to Embudo to pick peaches, and the weather couldn't have been more perfect. It always amazes me to see Johnnie's peach tree so loaded. His tree never even takes alternate year breaks. We got there just in time to pick lunch up from Sugar's BBQ We ate at Johnnie's picnic table with peaches periodically raining down on us. Johnnie's place is always a feast for the eyes, but at peach harvest it's also a feast for the nose with the smell ripe peaches heavy in the air. The bees were buzzing all the fruit on the ground, and I would love to find their home to sample some of the peachy honey.
