Still Picking Cherries


Great way to earn a little cash while you are on the road. I'm in Kelowna British Columbia at the moment and I have managed to make $1000 for 3 days of work. We generally keep our expenses down to a minimum, around $15 / day (I am a smoker and tobacco is quite expensive here). I have bacon and eggs for breakfast, a couple of sandwiches for lunch and for dinner we decided to have sirloin steak that only costs $3 with potatoes and broccoli. The farmer allows us to stay on the farm for free and provides a shower and toilette facilities. We have some workers from Quebec, Brazil, Columbia, India and an American Indian named Cliff. All around we are having a great time sharing stories of our travels, working hard and sharing great camping and travel locations. Unfortunatly we are limited with internet connections since we are 60 miles away from the nearest internet connection. I will be picking cherries till the end of August and then apples will start for the months of September and October, after which I will be heading for Arizona where the winters are warm and sunny.
