Cool rock, Jesse. That's why now is a good time to hunt rock-dope won't grow in the winter and it's too cold for barrels of mash to work and ferment. ;D

Man, if you have your own source of Horse Creek, you are one lucky SOB. If you try to buy that stuff, it goes for about 5 bucks a pound. And I've seen what you can do with it. Great stuff.

 Swampbow and Parnel were at the house this weekend. Parnel and I were in Flip-flops Sunday with maple leaves falling like it was Fall.

  Yep, the freeze. Collards made it and the mustards just got spanked a little. The Pineapples didn't fair so well, though.

Durnit. I was looking forward to some more of those at the next gathering you made it too. You grow some killer pineapples.
