Mozelle Hood - Dirty Fruit Jars
"I remember picking cherries in the summer when my father went to do farm work, so we usually lived on a farm somewhere. It varied a lot. We had a big irrigation ditch behind the house, and we kids used to sneak off there and go swimming. But I never learned to be a good swimmer, so how my mother got through that I don’t know. It was good. It was fun. If we weren’t picking cherries, we were doing something else. Helping my mother can. I still remember those dirty fruit jars we had to wash."
