Orlando

Brad and I got to spend a few days in Orlando last week. We had a great time.  Some of the highlights were: 

Going on a "swamp tour" on an air boat. We saw beautiful scenery, lots of birds and some alligators.

Going to Cocoa Beach, (the beach and the city) where the famous Ron Jon's Surf Shop is and then traveling south on the eastern peninsula of Florida almost to Miami.

Going to Animal Kingdom and EPCOT at Disney World.

Attending a session at the beautiful Orlando Temple.

Harvest Time

I love fall and harvest time!

Despite the lack of time to spend in the garden this summer we still got a bounteous harvest.  Here is some of the yummy food we will be feasting on this winter:

 Beautiful light colored applesauce made from the transparent apples.

 Relish made from cucumbers, peppers and onions.

 Dill pickles with fresh dill from Brad's herb garden.

 Lots of cucumbers this year.

 Beautiful red tomatoes that I turned into catsup, pizza sauce, spaghetti sauce, salsa, and diced tomatoes.

 Peaches from Utah and Pears from Boise area

 Bell peppers and "hot" peppers

Beautiful and tasty apples.
