South Hamilton, MA

happy wedding! I loved 'snow apples' when I was a kid. It is a variety with a French name which I can't remember. sometimes see it advertized in an heirloom variety listing.

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Sorry to shanghi the thread like this but Robindogs Gravens made me remember.
Many of the varieties are left off of the commercial growers because they dont harvest and travel well.
I just bought 20 Ounces and will make Apple Crisp.

Huron, OH(Zone 5b)

Happy wedding, Celeste. No hint of frost here yet. 60 and raining.

Thomaston, CT

Cheers to the the happy couple! In the 30's here this morning, now in the 50's---no frost---dahlias still look pretty nice. Thanks for the list Jo Ann---I think Snow Apple & Fameuse are the same, Iris. An heirloom I've only eaten twice would be winter banana---I really love that one, but very hard to find.

Great to hear, Celeste. I also had a great time at my family picnic. Sadly, one of my aunts is nearing the end. My mom and her sisters went to visit her. She only weighs 60 pounds. But she is 87, so she did live a nice life and lived longer than anyone else in the 15 child family.

Rainy and 64.

Eastern Long Island, NY(Zone 7a)

Rain, heavy at times, 65°.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Adorable shot of Isabella, Celeste! Sure did think about you a lot on Saturday. Rest and just enjoy the memories today!

Victor - sorry to hear about your aunt's fading condition, but it is nice that she lived a good, long life. What a huge family! Also glad you enjoyed your family picnic!
Sounds like you need some rest today too!

We went down for a Yale football weekend with Hank's brother/sister-in-law, who is like a sister to me. Nice day for a game, but Yale lost in the last few minutes. Spent the weekend nights with my son, so it was a nice get-away. This rain we're having at home is just what the 40+ new plants from last Saturday needed!!! Great rainy day for us all to just tuck in and rest a bit!

Thomaston, CT

Rainy and 65---good day to celebrate 3 birthdays here & chase those gkids around. Sorry about your aunt, Victor---I lost my parents' last sibling last year---he was 90, but his gkids sobbed at his funeral, & I know they miss him.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Boy, Marilyn - I'll bet you're a bit tired right now! That is so sweet that the grandkids cared so deeply for their Grandfather.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks ladies.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

LOVE Isabella's dress!!! How adorable!!!!!
Sorry to hear about your aunt, Victor. Is she at home?

Rainy morning, then of course started raining just as I got to the grocery store and then again just as I got out to get pizza. figures....

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks, Jen. Yes, she is still at home. She is getting hospice care. My uncle is still going too - he is 88.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

Prayers for her family, Victor. Hospice is wonderful.

Started out rainy, but cleared up nicely for the church picnic.

65 and very windy. Having wind advisory for the county.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks, all.

71 and mostly sunny. The experts were wrong again.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Very windy here too. high of 78- 75 right now

Thomaston, CT

Ditto the wind----70, & sunny---what's not to like? Should be planting---instead another trip to doc for DH.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

70 and sunny and breezy here. It was a great day for Wha and Hank to scout out some big stones here. He is one strong guy!!!!! Here he is building me a little stone bench in front of Cuppatea.

Cool! Show us the final product.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Very nice! Wow - lots of leaves down!

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

hey lousie that was a sneak photo!!

that was the trade off i made - find a stone and build that bench for louise and hank would let me pick out a nice large flat stone for a seat to lug home. Lots of them to choose from and i did find a perfect one! - any bigger and we would not have been able to get in the xterra - almost had a very nice large pick quatz rock too - that was until hank said "i collect them" shoot! :) - so i carried it out of the woods and we put it in one the garden beds (freindship?)

great day for rock hunting!!

The wind blew the clouds in, looks like rain any minute.
