Ed, as a Canadian, sailing his recently purchased 34' fiberglass sloop, made in Edenton, North Carolina, (THIS IS WAY BACK IN 1976), going down through the inland waterway to eventually the Bahamas, I think it was in Charleston when we spotted tons of pecans lying on the ground on some stately lawns. We took a chance, grabbed some bags, and started collecting. No one shot at us!! They were excellent, and although I have never been privileged to get to Alabama, save every Pecan tree you can!! Cheers!
