We beat the freeze

We picked about 8 gallons of green tomatoes, bell and jalapeƱo peppers before the freeze and Mel and I spent a lot of time canning all kinds of recipes the last coupe of days. Also had a great conversation with a man I have done several projects with in the past and we will be meeting within the next two weeks to talk about our business plan.

Great game- congrats Longhorns

It was a great game. Case McCoy gutted it out and delivered the big plays at the end. Cold and windy at the lake today. Did get the leaves changed out in the composter. We still have lots of peppers and tomato on the vines. Might have to pick soon, we might be headed for our first freeze of the year.

Beat The Hell Outa tu!

In commemoration of the last (at least for the near future) meaningful game between the Aggies and Longhorns...
Traditions die hard but memories last forever

We are  home just over a week now. So far, we have managed to clean the two ponds, start raking leaves (a long process), got the boat back from the shop and into the slip, unpacked and began completing our business plan.
Here are some photos from the trip...

Back at the lake!

Melanie, Bully and I returned home Friday after seven weeks and 7000 miles on the road. We traveled to New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas and Oklahoma. We had a ball. Will be posting a few photos. We did go to Greenvile and filed our assumed name certificate for our new business venture today.
