This turkey, a survivor of last weekend’s Neighbors’ Gun Club turkey shoot, surveyed the overgrown field in front of our house.
While this particular bird is safe, we are already preparing for Thanksgiving — we’ve been gathering hickory nuts for pie and brittle.
On Sunday, cutting vines in the hedgerow, I found an old apple tree, a vestige of the farm’s orchard. This apple wasn’t much to look at, but it was quite tasty — firm and tart. Maybe next year we’ll get some more, now that the vines are gone.
