The other day we made a trip out to Bard, CA and the Sun Garden Date Farm, Bill’s favorite place!

 

 

 

Medjool dates are like candy to him

We watched workers “shaving” the date palms, the dates are harvested in September.

We may have to go back before we leave the area as Bill is already talking about getting another great date shake!!!!

Good morning! Having a date shake reminds me of the time that I ordered a Black Walnut Shake at Cecil's Hamburger joint in Jacksonville, Alabama. Ever tried to suck one of those up a straw?? Hope you guys are having a blast! Sallie in Oregon
