Re: HMB pics


Rocky,
    The folks at Half Moon Bay have always done this very funky measuring
thing at the weigh off. all the growers just let them do their thing. we
just ignore the measurements. i do not know how it got started or how to
stop it. it is now a little quirk that is just part of half moon bay. They
know how to weigh them but not how to measure the ott! cindi glasier
