By the way I told my Wife, when I left, I would be back at the Texas home to watch the Mississippi State - Alabama game tonight on ESPN. I don’t think State has a chance. I was at the 6-3 win that State had over the then #1 Alabama team on Nov. 1, 1980. We did not beat them again until 1996! So this game tonight is special to me. Both teams are 7-0. But Alabama IS Alabama and we are going to their House to play! Drats!

I guess that means you’re not a SF Giants fan... >;(((
I thought of you yesterday when we were at a apple farm and they were pressing 6 gallons of juice for a couple of young guys and they had a white bucket with a clear one way valve in the lid. I asked them if they worked at one of the local brew pubs but they said no...

I would never think of renting my house out - being so far away from it.
I missed posting my beer thread this week - no internet at the house in Ms. So will just continue next Friday at Beer Thirty!
I have been doing some Hard Apple Ciders which have turned out very Tasty! Nice and easy ! Now I understand the mission of Johnny Apple Seed!

One of the things I did get to see on over the air TV, while in Ms was the first two games of the WS! The First Major League Game I saw was at Candle Stick Park. My father took me and two of my young friends to a game! The big hi-lite of the the game for us was the guy selling peanuts. He was chanting “Get Your Peanuts Here!” And all of us heard it as “Get Your Peanuts Hair”! Quite funny for three young 15 year old teens! We had to tell my Dad to listen to him - he got it and laughed along with us! And we all got our peanuts Here! Hair!
As far as watching the Giants - Watching Miss State play Alabama takes first choice tonight!

Another early Garlic, this one from Vietnam. It will mature in May but this varity will only be about the size of a old 50, cent piece but It is our daughter's favorite

I have a few really really short shoots not nearly as many or as tall as yours. Hoping mine will be done no later than June 1, but we’ll see.

The pomegranate bush in fall colors. We did harvest some of the fruit, but left quite a bit for the birds and bees. I never paid much attention to this old bush, but have a new-found appreciation of it after watching it change with the seasons this year.

Actually, we seem to be 'past peak' .... but here are some pics I took a week or so ago:
Maples in red glory!
Combo of fall chrysanthemums & summer begonias, geraniums & marigolds that are still blooming.
Even the vines on the pines are really red this year.

It’s Poison Ivy ..... we’ve cut the vines on some of the other big pines to kill it & this one will be next .... but it does turn a pretty red in the fall.
