Anybody ever made up a story of balloon Heaven - when kid's balloon flew away?
Your a good Poppy, Tally. That is a pretty good size pecan tree. How old do you figure it is? How many pounds of nuts do you get a year? I'm envious.

Dudley, it looks to me like you should open a barbecue restaurant. That much pecan wood would last you for many years in your smoker.
My cousin used to have a huge pecan tree in her front yard in Vernon, Texas. One of the last outdoor things I did with my mother before she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's was to pick up pecans under that tree. They were less than 1/2" long and probably no more than 5/8 diameter. I called them "marble" pecans. My cousin didn't want anything to do with them, but my mother had a ball picking them up. We must have picked up 50 lb or more. That's a bunch of tiny pecans.![]()
*The lift I used today wasn't quite as elaborate as this one but it didn't cost me anything either.
Gee jinman you would make a good olive picker!
