Thanks Dave. Most tell me I have big hands for my size. But compared to Bruces first baseman's mitt's They are puny. Those are enormous nuts though.

I saw the PBS show. I watched the marijuana episode. Way more advanced than when I used to do it. Very interesting show.

I have a few trees behind my house that drop fruit that looks about the same size as the chestnut, only the outer part is smooth and doesn't have the stickers. My neighbor said they were hickory. I read that animals like the nuts, I can vouch for the squirrels, but are they edible by humans? It's a good sized nut.

About the chestnuts, we'd get my dad to drill a hole in them then we'd take lace about a 2-3' piece of string through it. Swing it around sort of like a sling Accuracy wasn't that good, but once you really got that thing swinging and let go it went pretty far.
