I was hoping to drive thru Tony's Almond farm and steal a pick up load of Almonds! lol I hope he doesn't have any long rifles, or he is out of powder or balls. Somebody beat me to the Almonds and got a truckload................ https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-arrested-21-tons-pistachios-164247894.html I may still go to Fresno but I am not going to be in Tony's orchard as I think he will be waiting for me. I don't want to get those chrome bracelets put on me as I have enough of them that I have not sold. I was selling them in Mexico but since I haven't been there in a couple years, the local police will have to find another source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck in Cali you won't be arrested for shoplifting unless you steal $1,000 or more in goods ..... although I don't know when Tony takes the safety of on the 12 gauge , probably much sooner than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
