No, I don't need another hobby at the moment! LOL. Not sure how much these will produce. I have had these for like 5 years and they never flowered. Found out I needed to have them buried deeper so broke them up this Spring and repotted/planted them almost at the bottom of these plastic barrels. They seem "hoppy" in their new home with some hop vines to grow on.

If I get enough I will donate these to our local Brew Coop who can always use more hops.

Are you brewing now, Mike?

Snuck away from the in-laws for a few minutes to try out a new camera filter, wade in some cool water and just take a short break. Found a pretty neat spot.

I think it was 116. Hot enough that it hurts when you go out. Glad to be home to our cool 102!

LOL, Every time we cross the bridge over the Colorado river on I40 even in the dead of "Winter" it seems like it is 100 degrees in that area!

A friend from work who is familiar with my Skeeter Pee addiction gave me this sweet Skeeter stopper for a retirement gift.

Out picking blueberries on Friday and the wife made some blueberry/sour cream coffee cake.

Last night I used some lemons off of our tree. Lemon poppy seed pound cake. Just out of the oven and before I put the glaze on.

Try using Lemoncello instead of water to make the glaze. It really makes a big difference in taste.

I use lemon juice for the glaze mix, not water.

The coffee cake looks delish! We are absolutely overrun with berries this year from our 20 bushes. All of the berries are about the size of my thumb. Theres are lots left to ripen and freeze yet. Plus, we have bags and bags of them frozen from past years. Trying desperately to get my wife to let me make some blueberry wine again. So far, no dice.

Looks delightful, and I like the taste with a cup of strong coffee with milk and sugar. Sweet and sour. Mmmm...

How do you preserve them in jars, do they last for a long time?

Very satisfying. We're turning ours into pies and wine this year (1st time for the wine), but you can't beat fresh canned peaches!

By the way, my wife just got back from Kansas visiting her parents. I believe you mentioned you live there?
