pole beans

Today I picked another pound or so of pole beans. That makes about 7 quarts that I will have harvested off of a 25 ft row planted between 3 trees. Tomatoes are another thing. We have yet to harvest one tomato and there are only about 6 on the vines. The zucchini have quit producing but the eggplant are providing us with all we need. They don't pickle very well though. The zucchini pickle quite well.

Allied Media Conference

This is my first post on the first day of the conference. But first, last night, it was an acoustic performance by three guys. Rob Williams from Waitsfiied VT was the mc and opening act for Joe Jencks of Seattle and Casey Neill from Brooklyn and Portland. It was an old fashioned folk fest from the sixties. Casey Neill has a Bob Dylan-like voice with a lot more ironic humor. Joe Jencks brought a tear to my eye with his memories of family. A great time was had by all.
If you are ever in Bowling Green OH go to Easy Street Cafe and order the French Onion Soup.
More as the weekend goes on.

I have arrrived at the Allied Media Conference. I am a bit early so I am exploring the BGSU Campus.

After hearing all the rumors about the demolition of the historic houses on GA. Ave someone has finally brought it to the public’s attention. Michael Pitts’s letter to the editor was published in the VDT today. Pitts is president of the Brookwood North Neighborhood Association. The only information I have found on this demolition project is in the 582 page Master Plan for the University. Demolition projects are listed but some are listed only as building numbers. Go to the VSU website to download this doc. www.Valdosta.edu
