The walnuts are right on time as usual here in northern Misery. They appear green from a distance but the ground is getting covered by yellowing and brown leaves. This tree loses all leaves before most other trees even show color. My mulberry trees don't yellow very early here. We are close enough to KC MO to be only a little later then them for greenup in the spring. They have two river valleys come together at the river bend of the Missouri River and the blue comes in a few miles from that. So they have a micro climate approximating that closer to Arkansas. Be Well, RZ.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. Winston Churchill.
