 RH> Yep!  Got it too.  I even make it next year, just to see what the fuss
 RH> is about. 
Made it up this week.  It's worth the effort.
 RH> You're up there, all right.   You're probably closer to the imfamous
 RH> Jim Bodle than I am.:)  He's near Oneida....
Yup.  We were discussing that at the picnic.  My town is just across the N.Y.
border.
 RH> If I want to get to the beach, it's an hour south of here.:)  I don't
 RH> like it much though - too much sand and sun.  And no stove!
My sister's condo is equipped like a city house, but it is on a golf course.
Ocean Edge.  Don't know if you know it.  So I could cook to my heart's 
ontent
if I wanted to.  I rarely eat out when I'm down there, just pick up what I
need at the Stop n Shop.
 RH> Funny, I didn't know those were Canadians.  I thought they were
 RH> mainframe programmers!
Good One! :))))))  I think it's Floridians that get cheesed off with Canucks
who invade wearing Speedos and ankle socks.  We don't always send our best
out of the country!
 RH> UGH.  I picked 6 pints yesterday, and fridged them.  By the time I got
 RH> to them this afternoon, a lot of them were sprouting fur!  Arggggh!  I
 RH> made jam out of the un-furry ones.  We're getting some serious rain
 RH> now, which will kill a lot of the ones currently getting ripe,alas. 
 RH> The apples will be fine though,and since I need to make apple
 RH> sauce.....
My raspberries are trying to beat the first frost with a crop of fall 
erries,
but the locusts are still around.  Last year, I was picking them well into
fall.  Right now, their progress is being monitored by gigantic bumble bees.
This has been a fine year for bugs!
Take care,
Flo
