That's right Cathy. I remember more than one summer trip to the big peach orchards; picking many bushel baskets of peaches, and then the women canning peaches. I had forgotten. Do people still make bushel baskets?
There used to be a peach orchard here in Phoenix until the b*stard land developers filled it with red-tiled-roofed ticky-ticky houses; they gave us bags in which to pick our peaches, no bushel baskets. They only let the general public come out once, every year.
