Grandma's house: A plum-picking experience

Today, i had the most wonderful plum-picking experience. I went up a ladder next to a tall plum tree and...well, picked plums. I felt a bit queasy at first, but after a little, i felt kinda better. Here is the directions for picking plums off a tall tree:

  1. Climb a ladder by the tree.
  2. If you want to pick from a different branch, move the ladder.
  3. Reach out and pull the plum off the branch. Repeat if necessary.
  4. Throw away wrinkled plums. If only slightly wrinkled, do not


That is how. Here is a photo of me up a ladder, reaching out for a plum.




Have a lovely time plum-picking!
