Here in the San Benito Valley, harvesting goes on for much of the year.  The 
farm is shipping truck loads out each week and if it were not for the rains 
several weeks ago there would be more than weeds coming up.  The ground is 
just now dry enough to work.  I got a tractor running just in time to be put 
in front of a disk.

I am also having a good time going into the cooler and digging the evening 
salad from the days pickings.  I also have a bag of oranges just picked off a 
tree this afternoon.
