Pickles, BBQ with Barb and Rick

Charo and her cousin, Isabelle, visit the baby calves on Wednesday before going home to Spain. Charo will return at the end of September but she wanted her cousin to see the chicks and calves before they left.


Saturday was spent cleaning up sawdust from the kitchen so Kyla and I could make dill pickles. We made 26 quarts that night before going to dinner and then I made another 24 Sunday morning. Those famous "Delpha's Dills".....they are the best. Then we all headed in to Aunt Barb and Uncle Rick's for a BBQ salmon. As usual, Barb outdid herself and we got to visit with Jason, Brita and Joe. Joe spent the weekend with Grandma and Grandpa (Barb and Rick) and he and Emma had a great time......sometimes playing......but mostly arguing. What a fun age!

Barb's back yard is like a hidden oasis. I could just sit out there all day.
