Pears are Ready

This week has just flown by.  Two trips out of the canyon plus another one today.  Where does the time go? It is pear time here and I am going to, or a friend is going to help me can some pears.  It will make the job quicker, since they all have to be peeled.  That is the worst part.  I don't like to peel.  Each year I try to come up with a way to get out of peeling.  Yes, some of the jars from last year have unpeeled fruit.  Not such a good idea...  One year, I ground it all up...not such a good idea.  So, sigh, I guess this year we will peel all of them.  This lady is past the 75 mark, so she remembers canning in the "good ole days".  You know, hot stove, hot kitchen, hot, hot, hot.  O.K. no more complaining.
