Any weird neighbor stories?

[B Calm]

77. I would send that neighbor a get well soon card, LOL. I harvested over 4,000

black walnuts this fall and had to go to several neighbors properties to get them. For some reason none of my trees produced any nuts this year. With 12 acres of land I have a lot of walnut trees. Anyway, after hulling and washing the shells I had them all on my patio deck drying out in the sun. One morning I caught a squirrel stealing one, so I ran outside and he ran to the nearest tree and was barking to the other squirrels that he found the mother load. So I gathered all the nuts into mesh bags and brought them inside the garage and drying out next to the wood stove, that's how I know there are over 4,000 nuts.

Last year I purchased a Master Nutcracker and all I can say is wow! I actually cracked 5 so far without breaking any of the meat. Now that's something unheard of when it comes to black walnuts! I'm almost half way done with the 4,000 nuts. The Master Nutcracker is a little expensive, but well worth the money.
