Going back in time

We climbed up into the hay loft and helped Olinto and his friend tie up corn ( for rabbits and chickens)...to dry. It was like being in another time and I loved it.



You stripped the husks back, pull of some and leave some so as to tie those pieces to a second cob, and then they hand them to dry.




This man also had a big tank with trout for eating...the water coming from the nearby mountains, clean and cold. The tank must have been 15ft x 10 ft. You can see then jumping for the food Olinto was throwing. I thought that it would be not very much fun for the fish as they could only swim around and around...Olinto thought they were happy...we settled on that that was the only think they knew anyhow so were as happy as could be.
