Sister Watson

One of our neighbors, Sister Watson, has served for two summers as the camp naturalist. She is 73 years old and has eleven children. She nursed along a tomato plant all summer. It is a lot cooler here in the mountains so I am surprised she had any luck at all. Often she left her porch light on hoping it would keep the deer away from her prized plant. As soon as a tomato would ripen Sister Watson would give it to a neighbor. After all the immediate neighbors had received 'the fruits of her labor,' Sister Watson said she was finally going to keep any remaining tomatos as she hadn't even kept one for herself. She also brought us some fruit from her trees at her home. What a nice person! The following two pictures are from Sister Watson's porch. She put the rest of us to shame.
