Disappointed to find this clutch of pawpaws I'd been eyeing cut down for for trail trimming. Yeah the branches were hanging low, but we couldn't let them ripen a couple weeks? Any suggestions to ripen a premature pawpaw? Had meh luck setting them with the bananas before.

If you’re into historical nonfiction and tense action, Doyle Glass’s Swift Sword, telling the story of the Marines of Mike 3/5 in Vietnam, is both tightly researched and gripping, seamlessly blending scene with the words of the men who were there. Available now-- 💙📚
