Gifts from a great man

He planted the tree for grandmother. She loved to cook with the apples she picked. Debi told me about how she would slice the apples and lay them out under the sunshine to dry. "Just like candy," she said.

Today Debi took me to Grandfathers house for possibly the last time. It will be auctioned off a week from Saturday. She had mentioned to me a week ago the apples on grandmothers tree are ready to be picked, so we took the opportunity this evening before a thunder storm to pick as many as we could. I know we have at least 20 gallons of the beautiful cooking apples that grandmother once used in her famous recipes.

A gift from grandfather to her and now to us. Thanks Buis! We love and miss you.
