Jim,
what do you folks do with the crabapples? Jelly?
I've got a couple of trees in the neighborhood but have never used them. They're loaded this year too.
And what's the vine growing on the fence behind "young Daniel"?

You know Geno....I haven't got the slightest clue what kind of vine that is.
I would have to ask Dad. He might remember.....or mom maybe. Something.......ellis?
Yes. We make all our breakfast jelly out of those crab apples. Wonderful jelly. Tangy!
Mom will mix some store bought grape juice with it too sometimes. Tastes good too.
This year I was going to try to make crab apple butter. Might not get that done this time.
Would also like to try and make pancake syrup too.
I have 40 pound of beet to pickle first......
I am MAGA.

Thanks Jim,
I've got a couple of canning books around here, I'll look for a crabapple jelly recipe.
If dad remembers, so much the better, if not....no biggie.
That crabapple butter sounds mighty delish too.
Hafta remember to go to the Mennonites tomorrow and get a lug of apples to dry and turn into sauce. Our trees are only a couple of years old, frost killed all the blooms this year so not even one little apple. One of the silly trees has one bloom open on it right now. WTH? I've got hopes we get just the right amount of rain/cooling/snow/sun etc this winter and spring that I might get an apple one day before too long.
Enjoy your evening. I'm off to watch my first HOCKEY game of the season, well preseason actually. But it beats talking here about quilts.

Did y'all do any swimming? Beautiful river. Any fishing? After 3 days of great off and on rain showers ruined dove hunting for the foreseeable future.

No that isn’t Samuel; I’ll pass her the compliment ! That’s my baby girl Marian. Samuel has too many other things going on these days to get on the trail w/ me... he’s a junior so college visits are on the itinerary this year: Elijah is doing well also; started his freshman year of high school and is enjoying the increased autonomy. Here they are on their first day of school:

Yeah Marian & I swam but we didn’t fish at all. It was a pretty quick trip; we’d intended to do the 20.5 mi loop in 3 days; 5 mi, 10 mi, 5 mi but when we got to the camp the second night (after 10.5 mi) the skeeters were so thick we decided to make a break for the car.
One nights rest was all she needed; I was laid up all day Labor Day and still feeling it in my calves & shins that Tuesday.
We’re doing another loop the second weekend of October hoping for good colors!
That is a fantastic river for trout fishing; stays quite cold all year round.
