August 10, 2008 Corn Corn and more Corn

This morning Dad and I picked corn from the garden for the first time. It was crazy. We had a wheel barrow heaped up full of ears and the entire back end of the Rhino filled up with corn. There were at least 200 ears to shuck and then can. All in all it ended up taking almost 8 hours to get it all done and that was with 2 pressure canners going. Didn't get a chance to take a pick. It would have been covered in corn silks if theit had been anywhere near the kitchen.
