Everyone has something about which to be sentimental. I have many, and old fire engines, such as this 1968 Seagrave, hold so many stories, I wish they could talk. This old buggy saw some fires in its day, and now it sits, a diamond among the rust.Ever been to a drive-in? There's only one around here nowadays, and it's good that it's still active.

For pies, I go with Granny Smith. For slicing and eating, Honeycrisp or its new cousin Cosmic Crisp, please. Nothing like an apple in fall!
