The summer has been pretty grim, cold, not much sun, too much drizzle and fog, but the last few days have been glorious. The good weather didn't come soon enough for my garlic, which decided to stop growing last week and this week lay down for good, so I took advantage of the sun to harvest the whole patch, then yesterday took advantage of a pre-golf tournament weekend rest day for Andy to coerce him into helping me clean up the bulbs and set them out to dry (actually, I only asked for help when the black flies came on in force around 4 PM and started driving me crazy).
Today is Andy's first of two days golfing in the Highland Links club tournament in Ingonish, the scent of garlic lingering on his hands perhaps helping to ward off the evil of the hook, the draw, the fat shot, the slice.
The pictures: our garlic set out to dry after harvesting and before cleaning
