stacked his boxes of Goldens and Reds in my station wagon. (I noted Tuck had fingered on the dusty back- end “Picker Mobile.”) Dave jammed his pack and sleeping bag in, also. He asked me if I would read outloud the Yeats poem, “The Song of Wandering Aengus,” that I had sent him in a letter. I did. This lovely poem tells of how the shimmering trout the Irish hero caught transformed itself into a glimmering girl with apple blossoms in her hair. When Dave reached down to pet Gumpy (and she responded happily), I knew he’d return next season! (Hell, I don’t know, maybe One-Bin Walt will too!) Danny Rosato ran and brought us both a freshly baked cinnamon roll, chock-full of honey and raisins. As we' munched away and drove away, we waved goodbye to friends, to “brothers and sisters” — to “the family of man.” Smelling the fragrance of the orchards wafting through the car window, I realized I had experienced many things “apple-picking.” If you clumsily ram your wrist against “a/ spur,” you can gouge blood. We came from the dust, we worked in the dust, and we’ll return to it. Where does it come from? Pesticides? Fruit sugar? Mt. St. Helens’ ash? Alkali in the water? No one knows exactly. It’s addictive. Your eyes get irritated with it. Your nose snorts it and sneezes it. It’s like Jim Cook said to me, as we were leaving, “Next season you’re gonna come back to get your dose of pickers’ dust. It’s time-released! Around September, you’re gonna call Doyle up and reserve a trailer for the harvest.” ■ Ruthie’s V t studio. & school Join us for individual weaving and spinning instruction, enjoyment and inspiration.
