A Day in the Blueberry Patch

June 24th - Monday Hot and Humid 85 degrees
Lou and I both had appointments for our annual physicals this morning, and as soon as we finished there, we came home and changed our clothes and met Preston and Susie at the Homestead, as they drove up from Tyrone.  We decided to have a quick lunch first then tackle the job of taking the old netting off the blueberries.  Like most jobs that you think will be easy and quick this job started at 1:00 pm and ended at 8:00 pm.





Taking the old netting off and gluing the PCP Pipe in place

Pulling up the old wire along with weeds

After the old wire has been removed, weed eater run, old netting pulled down

Getting ready to put up the new fence

New fence post have been driven, starting to put new fence in place

Fencing is done, now for the ropes on the top

Good job done and now the blueberries can ripen ready to be harvested!!
