Hi Nancy,

 RH> And held for several days before putting up. We probably should

 NB> Ah, that also explains why they didn't escape totally unscathed... ;)
 NB> And, having put them up, you will indeed enjoy them this winter.. :)

We got some a few years ago and did the same thing. This time I think
the peaches were a bit riper to begin with.

 NB>  NB>>> Did Steve take the bad ones back to Harris Teeter....?
 NB>  RH>> No, just added them to the compost bucket.
 NB>  NB>> I might have wanted to let them know that they were that bad,
 NB>  NB>> in case they cared....

 RH> Yes, but we had other things to take care of, and my fall/break threw
 RH> us out of sorts for a few days.

 NB> Ah, yes, that would throw a monkeywrench into things...  ;)

Quite so, but smoothing out now. Getting used to the temporary new
normal. Not fun but knowing it's short term makes it more bearable.

 NB>  RH>> before we served supper. They unwound some more by doing the
 NB>  RH>> clean up afterward, before going down to Barre for maple
 NB> creemees.  NB>> Sounds quite pleasant.... :)

 RH> Nice to have the clean up done for us, and the chance to sit & visit
 RH> with those not needed for the clean up. Getting creemees the first
 RH> night in VT is traditional as we understand.

 NB> Like getting ice cream cones (and poutine) is a tradition with our
 NB> mission teams to Quebec...  ;)

Probably so. (G) I think some of this year's team got a creemee every
day/night of the time we were in VT.
