Capers With Carroll

There are times in life when one must put down whatever may be the task at hand and help a neighbor in need. For example, when an elderly neighbor laments that her apricot crop has become a burden; she doesn’t eat them any more; they fall to the ground and become buggy; how could any caring person go on about regular business and not help out?

I suppose the sweet apricot nectar dripping down my chin is just part of the call of duty.
