We had an excellent year for our hickory nuts this year.
Joe enjoys picking them up and sharing them.
We crack a few and grandma and grandpa's,
and he finally tried them this year - HE LIKES THEM!
This evening he picked up 6 gallon buckets full.
He shares them with Pastor/Uncle Ed.
He set up was unique - wasn't sure why he had the cooler
and the wheelbarrow....he quickly cleared this up...
it was to keep the squirrels out while he picked them up!
We had a very warm fall.
Until it turned cold and wet a few days ago,
we think it is going right to winter this year.
We snuck in some fun on the days that were nice!
We all joined him after Sam came home from
basketball.
Cracking nuts Sunday after lunch at Grandma's, she is collecting enough
to make a Hickory Nut Pie(Pecan-like) - Yum!
They look like a mini walnut, taste like a pecan.
