    We have both, but Honey is more prevalent. These babies got the big thorns too, gotta watch out.

    Looks like a great day all around.

    Yep, strip em off with the saw. Makes it a bit easier. These trees are big enough the thorns have dropped off the trunks at least.
    Nope, just Ken's Mountain Dew LOL. I wondered who was gonna catch that.
    I wish you would join us sometime Dennis! Anytime you're up for a ride. :salute:

    I will as soon as I'm able. It is beginning to look like I'll get this surgery done. That will help a lot!
