I'll bet you're wondering what is in the bucket!
But first, a little background information! We've been running around the apple farm with a list a mile long of things that need to get done right away - because Spring has Sprung and Summer is only getting closer! And this list hasn't gotten much smaller! Two biggies: One -level ground for the greenhouse to go up on. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Except, I broke the tractor! Hence, picture with scraper, minus the tractor, in the middle of the bramble patch!
It gets better! Two - Fallen trees. NOT Apple trees! Naughty trees that decided to grow along a fence line. Only five left to go when I broke the chainsaw!! The Apple Farmer says that the chain got too hot and stretched out and that is why it won't stay on the saw....
We had good success in other areas, like rooting grape cuttings and red raspberry canes, until I ran out of potting medium....
Which brings us to the bucket...
We went fishing. The Apple Crew pulled a guilt trip and reminded me that Santa brought the President and CEO a fishing pole for Christmas and he STILL hasn't had a chance to play with his Christmas gift... Sheesh, Santa, what kind of a Christmas gift was that? He must have been pretty naughty to end up with a gift that he could only stare at until April finally rolled around!! So I caved. They all were good helpers anyway! Why not?
Why not? Because!!! They caught the BIG ONE, among others, and what that means for me is fish guts....
Eighteen inches of BIG! And the Attorney was beaming! And so was the CEO... He finally got to play with his Christmas gift!
Holy, Moly, child! Does your Mama ever cut your hair?

Man, based on some other posts, I was prepared for ANYTHING to be in that bucket. Seriously, your kids are going to have some great childhood memories and stories.
