Look at them soldiers, all lined up and ready to fulfill their destiny. Brings a tear to your eye.
 
I drive by these fields almost every day.

A good, traditional Barlow is right at home out on the farm.

Honeybees are the farmers' friends.

This sheepfoot was the first Barlow I ever owned. It's been a faithful companion these last two years.

Thanks, Dean. I promise that's patina, not rust!

Thank you, Perry. When you're driving in the Sacramento Valley, you might think you were in southeastern Arkansas: mostly tomatoes, corn, rice, melons. But then you see those sunflower fields. I've only seen that many sunflowers in Kansas. This must be one of the flattest parts of California. Hot, dry, but at least it cools off at night. And we don't get devoured by mosquitos like you do down south!
 
Nice pictures, Scott! They would make a nice knife label!!

Thanks Scott!
Slightly goofy as usual!!
Makes me want to brew up a cuppa java though!!
 
Glad to see some new folks able to taste a bit of the TC fruit this go round! Should be fun to watch them receive and post them. :)
 
Yes indeed Perry, needless to say I'm beyond excited for my first 'Tom's Choice', 'Charlow' & 'Tim's Choice' ;) Only kidding but it'll be a very nice surprise.
