Wet hop with some and dry the rest.  I'm jealous.

Where the heck are we going?  And what's with this hand basket?

Nice haul!  How many years old was this batch?

Thanks. I've had the plant growing for eight years. First three years at my old house, then transplanted it here and it kept going full blast.

Cascade of course....

Wish I got that many.  My Cascades are way off this year.  Uneven watering schedule.  (It's the drought, that's it! I'm sticking to that story.)

My Cluster's did ok this year, but they came in over three weeks - not all at once.
Beer...Now there's a temporary solution!

I hear ya. It'd been pretty dry in New York too. And hotter than usual this year. Everything is getting clobbered. I think I've had about a third of the tomatoes I usually get. My Chinook plant is usually a maniac but it was only ok. Mt.Hood and Willamette barely had any cones. The only thing I grow that has been doing well besides the cascade plant are the hot peppers. I have a billion of them.
