Yesterday was another clear fall day with nice temperatures in the mid-60's (Fahrenheit). Since Wifey was holding her own with The Bear (aka the baby), I took the big kids out to the field to plant another tree.
The Boy was a big help. The Girl was very enthusiastic but was best suited for the role of cheerleader from the seat on the riding mower. Everything took longer than the day before -- we planted one tree in the time it took to do two the day before -- but it was more about teaching the kids and getting them excited about having an orchard than being productive.
Regardless, another tree is in the ground. This time it's a Honeycrisp. Three trees to go!
