This has been an unusual year for pecans and picking. First, it seems like it was a very good year for growing; second, Sandy and I happened across a lady who has been letting us pick pecans in her yard. Not only does she let us pick, but she's been picking and saving them for us. Most of these pecans are from her yard but we did come across a couple other "hot spots" that had very nice ones too.
We've been getting our exercise not only from walking and picking but carrying the sack full back to the condo. The Texas oranges are good this year too for fresh-squeezed juice. The orange bags come in handy for storing the pecans. The sacks hold 18 lbs. of oranges - and pecans.
Hopefully, the Target shopping bag can hold out for a few more pecan picking trips.
The weather is suppose to be turning a little colder next week - good time to do some cracking.

Looks like you hit the jackpot!
