Linda, I know you'll be glad when the fires are finally out!! If that ever happens... Seems like they have fires somewhere in California just about all year. When I was at the San Diego Fires in October of last year, I decided that I would never work a fire again because the smoke in the air really messed up my sinuses. Course it depends on which way the wind is blowing I guess... I know, we got smoke the other day from the fires in North Carolina and they're over 300 miles away. It only lasted for a few hours though because the wind changed.

I don't think I've seen anybody on here for several days... Is everybody out in the garden or gone on vacation? My garden is producing a few green beans and some squash... but that's all. We don't seem to have any bees!!! I just simply cannot pollinate those blossoms with a paintbrush! Lol... I'll probably end up buying vegetables from the farmer's market if I plan to can any and I sure would like to can as many as I can get... We're still in a severe drought and can't water! Are any of you in the flood areas down the middle of our country? What about the fires in California? What is this world coming to?
