My grandparents had one in their backyard in the house they bought in Kentucky where they retired. And of course down in Georgia the roads are lined with them. We have black walnut trees here but no pecans.

It seems I grew up picking up, shelling, and eating pecans, my favorite nut. Thankfully, I am not allergic to pecans. I no longer pick them up because I don't know of a tree where I can. But, I know a guy who will have them at the Farmer's Market.Practical Parsimonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08419071209412207674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-23481716385753892192020-09-28T11:05:55.991-04:002020-09-28T11:05:55.991-04:00I love all your ideas, and will be partaking in th...I love all your ideas, and will be partaking in them all. I'd add a fire-if you are in a part of a country that can safely have them. With the need to socially distance, sittin goutside wrappe din a blanket with a beverage-cocktail or cider/hot chocolate, is near a perfect night for me. Even if no fires, sitting outside with maybe a few LED candles would do the trick as well.

I'm not sure that they will be happening this year though as so many things are cancelled due to Covid. Still, I'm hoping to do a drive in the country with a friend next week as she has some artwork to collect and it will give us a chance to see some Fall colours. <br />Haven't done any apple picking in years but we may stop at some fruit & veg stands and pick up some things - love a crisp Fall apple!Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.com
