The daughter and son-in-law of friends of ours in Columbiana, Ohio – in addition to being a occupational therapist and family physician, respectively – like to play around with farmer stuff. They are currently growing hops in their front yard and have a bee hive in their back yard. That’s way more ambition than I had, even when I was working! I think they are hoping to brew beer from the hops, but I don’t know their plan for honey. Maybe mead? We’ll have to see. We visited their place while they were off at work in order to check out the progress and to take a few photos.
Great pictures. Laurie is an Occupational Therapist if you want to change that,
Fixed, thanks. I figured ‘physical’ rather than ‘mental’, I guess! 😉
The hops are kool and provide one beautiful leaf. Just took a few images of them this past week in Seattle. I’m not sure I want to deal with bees, although we need them in our world.
I kept my distance, although they seemed pretty intent on the business at hand!
