Yea, Rob, they are big juicy delicious muscadines, my grandfather called them 
scuppernongs.  He had an arbor with thousands and thousands of them.  
Delicious--eat till you get sick good.

I just finished palnting all of the rest of the tomato plants.  I ordered 
more seeds from Gurneys to arrive the first of next week, but I'm going to 
plant some various seeds in the new beds, this afternoon (seeds from the 
fall).  I think I might pick a small area and just throw a mixture of 
different type of seeds, rake them in and see what comes up :-)
