The peanut patch has come full circle now. |
Wednesday morning the dog and I had to hurry on our walk. I had to get the dog to his vet where he will be boarding till Monday afternoon. He likes the vets office because they constantly pay attention to him and give him snacks and walk him l throughout the day. We walked quickly down to the peanut patch where I had picked up some peanuts a couple of days ago. I wanted to pick up the peanut plants I put aside and bring them home to roast. The peanut patch is now just a flat ocean of dead plants now that the harvest is complete. Once these plants are completely dry they will be rolled up and baled and hauled away.

Look at all those peanuts. |
When I had my plants gathered up I began my walk back to the house. The dog of course ran far ahead and caused me alarm when he arrived up near the paved road. The cars go very fast there and will hit him if he is not careful. I struggled home with the plants dragging behind me and finally arrived in my yard with the dog tagging behind. I stuffed the peanuts into my shed so they could stay dry. I have to go out of town to a reprographics show in Orlando Florida for my work. The next few days will be nominally about that trip. I am a homebody so leaving my dog and home is not my idea of fun but I will try and make the best of it. I will roast the peanuts when I return and let you know how they came out. Thanks for reading my blog today. Bye.
