Additional Photos

Again, I tried to upload some photos into the body of a post, but it says the image is too large (5426 kb). I don't know how to shrink it.
So, if you want to see 3 new photos, go to my photo page.
I've added: Studebaker Restaurant (where I ate in St. Ste. Marie, MI), my nectarine tree (loaded with delicious fruit), and my neighbor's landmark silo (barn long gone).
Otherwise, I have nothing to say!

I've NEVER seen a silo like that! Wow! Lucky you for the nectarines! My berry bushes either didn't product much or got diseased this year. But I will have a nice little apple and crabapple crop. Garden is doing overwhelmingly well this year - I am NOT keeping up to it's production.

One can climb to the top of the silo, but not me!

"produce much"

Like that silo photo. You have a lovely location. Everything looks charming.

I sort wish my place still had a barn. It was torn down before I moved here (35 years ago).

Fantastic tree! And that silo is pretty.

I wasn't sure the actual fruit would show up in the photo. See my reply to Boots.

Great crop of nectarines. Did you water the tree this summer? Silos with pointed tops are kind of rare. That is a beauty.

Hi. I picked all the nectarines and froze them. I tried taking the skins off in boiling water, but that proved so messy, I gave up and "jarred" them with skins. I watered the tree once, along with my almond tree and a few small peach trees. We got some rain the past two days, but not much. I can't see the silo from my house (trees), but it's very visable from the other direction. It's been restored.

P.S. I used iPhoto on my Mac but I also use Flickr to store photos. Flickr has a simple photo downsider. Also, on Flickr, once you upload the original large photo, it gives you downloading size choices if you don't wish to fiddle with downsizing yourself.

Another option. I'd ask one of my kids to help me, but I don't want them to know I'm on mybloggers (since I talk about them).

Your nectarines are really red! May I suggest you install a free (and completely safe) program called Picassa? Not only is it fantastic for organizing photos, but it has a very easy to use photo editor (very easy- very basic-no experience required)and will downsize your images for posting on the web.

You are hereby invited to come to my house (computer) and show me. I'll investigate, but I'm betting I can't do it.

Your nectarines look yummy.
comment by nittineedles on Aug 8, 2012 9:00 PM ()
They are so much better tasting than peaches, too!!
