July 1, 2016. Macin

Last night this year in Macin. The sunset is maybe as beautiful as the one in Oia, Greece.  
Sour cherries are ripe.
But we harvested the lavender, apricots, and some peppers. 
The chickens and cat are happy...
The house will return to normal...
Gardening and agriculture are ancient occupations here, and people grow their own produce even if they could buy everything fresh from the market.  Cheaper, too. They don't think about changing anything in the life of he town.  Schools shut down because the population is decreasing, with people going to work or study abroad. It's a sad town that doesn't look like the place where I grew up. If I had to return, I'd try to get everyone to regrow a sense of community.
