Well, not to unload on the list, but it IS on topic :-)
We had a pretty hard frost here and it was predicted to be 30 F or
colder. That would have certainly meant the end of my season so I hit
the panic button, not having enough crop in at the time to get me
through. I found some chiles in California & fly out in the morning
(O-dark early) to drive them back 42 hours non-stop for processing at
CaJohns in Columbus OH.
Am I STUPID or what?! :-)
When combined with my harvest (which wasn't hit as hard as the weather
knuckle-heads predicted) it should allow me to get through to next
season & keep all the folks that depend on me for mash happy.
So, if you happen to be along I-40 somewhere between LA and Columbus OH
and you see a Penske Rental Truck going by with Red Savinas(R) spilling
out the back, wave and say 'hi'. And, stay out of the way of the idiot
asleep behind the wheel :-)
