Thanksgiving at the Farm 2013

Fourteen for Thanksgiving in Burton.  Beth, Mom and Dad, Nan, Lisa, Will, Kim, Zellie, Henry, Carol Montgomery, Nathan, Jess, Bert and me.  Arrived Wednesday evening after a hideous week at work.  Thursday morning early I swept, mopped, laid down floor shine, cleaned the bath rooms, made a pie and a casserole, changed the sheets, gathered greenery, set the table all before 10:30.  Guests arrived 11:00.  Very pleasant day.  Carol arrived in her Model A.
  • Will, Kim and the kids stayed the night. 
  • Friday morning I planted 100 Narcissus Odorous Pleno (nickname Butter and Eggs or Bacon and Eggs or Double Campernelles) along the outside of the Rose Garden fence .
