The peaches are from a 1960s slide I scanned. The picture was taken in the Fort Valley, GA area. My Daddy had/has cousins there that own peach orchards and a packing plant. We had gone to visit and the peaches in those baskets were hand picked for us to take home. I guess I grew on the wrong "branch" of the family. I'd love to own an orchard. Linda

Jypsi a great Bluegrass band at the BlueGrass Inn Nashville. Notice the TIP jar in the forground. They work for tips only. Even have to take breaks to go feed the parking meters on the street where they have to park. We really enjoyed them! The girls are so great on the fiddle! Here is a link that might be useful: Jypsi

Ah, but, Nicole, for those who do enjoy good wine, a good wine glass can make a huge difference. Riedel makes different wine glasses for the different varietals. If you were to do a taste test with wine from an "ordinary" wine glass compared to the same wine from a varietal-specific Riedel glass, you'd notice the difference immediately. So, by buying new high-quality wine glasses, your hubby is happy because of the purity of reflection, and your wine-drinking guests will be happy, too. :-)

This is Fred with a friend of both of us. I miss that sweet boy. And happy to still have that friend even though she lives thousands of miles away, I get to talk with her fairly often. Over 40 years of friendship!!
