I got an email from my friend, Heather, "…the plums are falling off the trees. Come and picks some."
She did not have to ask us twice…
Heather and her family live on three lovely acres of horse pasture, mature fruit trees, and garden in Newcastle, CA. ‘A’ and ‘R’ boys had a great time playing with her boys, and I enjoyed spending time with Heather, and playing frisbee with her entertaining dog, ‘Jack’. This dog actually runs down stairs with just his two front legs! I tried to get video of it, but it did not turn out well.
Heather helps ‘A’ climb the ladder…
Heather’s terrific boys…
Enjoying the ‘Fruits" of their labor…
After picking plums, and eating our fair share, I took the boys to Folsom Lake, within five minutes from Heather’s home. (the south end of this lake is about 20 minutes from our home.) We met up again later at a park playdate with the rest of the homeschool moms.
Thanks for the great day, Heather! (This is a view of part of Heather’s yard…)
