We snack all day long on berries from the field, peaches from the orchard.

Times are changing. Not so many people are canning peaches the way they used to. We plant new varieties that fit the needs of the people today, which are different from the needs of people 10, 20, 30 years ago.

I get to share it with customers. They can now understand what it took to grow this.

I've got a lot of packing to do.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime, world-class event. Making sure our customers are satisfied is what it's all about. This is an opportunity to showcase Detroit to the world.

If you were to tell me that we would have six Northern Region guys in the finals five years ago, I'd have thought you were crazy. Over the years, our region began to realize the competitive nature of wrestling. Now, I think our region is one of the top two in the state. We're coming along very, very well.

I didn't know what would happen. I knew the starters weren't going to play much, so I figured I would play a lot. I thought anything could happen when we got down near the goal line, maybe throw one up, and we did. I was happy everything worked out.

At this point, we are checking things off the list. The train has parked at the station, and it's a matter of getting on board.

Having had a positive pre-racing inspection with the Jockey Club last week following Hereford's summer break, this is obviously very frustrating but we must act appropriately.
