      Hmmm. Advertising California cherries on a Michigan web site. I'll have to think about that one. I guess it's ok if nobody tells the tourist board ;-)

      Me? A sixth generation native Californian take off a California tag?!?!?

      You do realize I'm being facetious and have no problem with you using it I hope.

      i got that thanks, i was just kidding too. we are just so friendly here in Michigan that we like to help out other states in need of assistance. We didnt want to monopolize the cherry industry, so any time you guys need some help just let us know.

      Actually, my mom grew up here in Santa Clara Valley when it was known as the Fruit Basket of the World. The summer job for every teenager, including her, somehow involved fruit harvesting or packing. Now all those orchards are gone -- paved over for the electronics industry. She gets really upset at the "new" title of Silicon Valley.

      bummer, i'm sorry. The same kinda thing is happening here, just not to the same extent. All the orchards are being sold and turned into condos. It's really sad, but at least we still do have alot of the orchards.
