other dog Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Guess i'll leave for Tampa this evening,get a start anyway so it won't be such a long drive tomorrow-gotta find that beach Hatcity posted a picture of.I burned the turkey up and this morning the wind is putting most of the leaves I raked and blew with the "modified ENDT866 V8 Mack engine with adapted air to air charge air cooling" powered leaf blower back where they were to start with.I did pick all the hot peppers that were left this morning, before frost finished them off. Got this many now-Should be lots of hot sauce this year! That's 3 gallon bags stuffed full,plus the smaller bags. Don't know what to do with that much hot sauce,I still have a bottle of last years left. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
