Harvesting Yet?


Sound can really invoke memory.  I write to you now as the rain falls and the metallic chime of the rain gutter next to my bedroom plays a soft soundtrack.  This sound and the season bring back so many memories.  Every year, harvest is a game of cat and mouse with the rain.  The hourly checking of the weather forecast.  And then, in the middle of harvest, I’ll be awakened by the tinkling sound of rain in the gutter.  This sound brings with it no picking that day, and a little bit more sleep during a time of the year when every hour is precious. 

Harvest is now just around the corner.  The weather was not the most cooperative at the start of the year. A late rally of warm weather brings promise for the quality of the fruit we will be picking.
