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 :-)
