Yes Dave, I have done my share of canning this year also made pictures to put in the book I am writing about old time stuff like canning.......this book is meant to be left to teach the younger ones how to can.........it is a dying art........pj > Folks, just look what has transpired because someone asked about Indian > heritage on our great list! > Many thanks to all who have replied to my Finch posting.
