Good morning!

Supposedly today is the day Disney turns off their stations including WTAE. Word is CC wants to buy WTAE. If they do no Q&R there.

(I think)there was a thread about a Cobett/Wolfe debate. I didn’t know there was one. In any case it was mentioned that Wolf screwed up. Have to look around for info.

Meanwhile here are a couple of links to pics I took of my workbench covered in >some< of the pears mrs p6 brought.

Last night she was busy cooking and canning. Supposedly there are lots more to come. Looks like pear jam, jelly whatever for every meal all winter long.

the pics are pretty big so I’m just posting the links.

Good morning n’@!

Those are some pretty serious amounts of pears. Carmel covered pears are just as good as Carmel cover apples (grand kid treats!)

Happy canning!

Wow! Those are really nice pears! We didn’t get our peaches this year. We’re both on vacation in a couple of weeks. We will be going to Boyer Orchards at New Paris, Pa for our Golden Delicious, Cortland and Granny Smith apples. I’ll be canning applesauce. Last year, the Golden Delicious apples were so sweet I didn’t need to add any sugar at all. I’ve also got about 10 quart bags of raspberries in the freezer. Temps at 37 degrees this morning, so I don’t know if the remaining raspberries on the bush will have survived!

Interesting. I had heard CC was in debt up to their eyeballs, and was in no position to buy any more stations.

And that Disney was holding out for a laughably unrealistic price.
