[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 791062, member: 3306"] Man, when I was a kid, it was a yearly thing. I have fond memories of freezing my tiny butt off, getting blackened hands, freezing again... Seems like it was always cold when we did this. My dad always got a cain pole and thrash it around in the trees to knock down the loose pecans. Of course, they have machines that shake the trees, but this was a low tech adventure. I love pecans, but I have having to pick them up. I sure do wish I still had Dad's place for his trees, though. I imagine all the neighbors have cleaned them out by now. Dad had about fifteen grafted trees that had native and papershells. We used to pick at this orchard owned by a fellow that my dad knew. He had pecans and peaches, so we'd pick fall and summer. I have to say I liked the peach thing better. [/QUOTE]
