3pm - 3am

As many of you know, Grant has been working the night shift for cherry season. Thank goodness cherry season is finally over and I have my husband back. But apple harvest will begin soon and there is no telling what he might be doing so I probably should not hold my breath on this one.

One night Grant asked me to bring him dinner and then he'd show me around the cherry packing line. Of course I brought a camera and tried to sneak a few pictures. I already felt funny as Grant was giving me the tour and all the workers staring at this crazy lady with a camera like this was some tourist attraction. So I didn't snap too many pictures except a few quick ones, which is why they are so blurry. Apologies in advance. Grant manages a cherry packing line with his friend Jack. They have, on a good day, around 60 workers under them packing Bing cherries (other varieties too, but not Rainier cherries. Those are hand packed). Despite how many times Grant has explained how things run around there, I can't explain it. Just ask Grant. I'm sure he'd love to tell his side of it all. lol
