The Bear that I found in Rotary Park

has been live trapped and relocated by Fish and Wildlife. Apparently, the apple tree was  cut down. A second bear was also trapped. There are still a female with two cubs hanging around. I am happy that I got the photos when I did.

 I am now up to 16 apple pies and 16 apple crumbles that are sitting in the freezer waiting.

I am getting very tired of apples! There are still about 50 pounds on the last tree and I plan to pick them this evening and give them away!

I am Appled Out!

Our Apple trees (three) produced extremely well this year1 The apples were nice and firm with no blemishes or bruises.



At present there are eight  9inch pies cooked and frozen sitting in the freezer.

The pies are excellent and we have sacrificed two already for testing.

There are also about a dozen apple crumbles in the freezer waiting for winter.

This is the critter that made apple processing bearable. I got it from Lee Valley Tools and it is the best invention since sliced bread. It peels, cores and slices in nothing flat!

However, I still have half a box of apples and have run out of desire to do any more ('till next year)
