Hi, my name is Chris Hudson and I’m an English professor at Amarillo College. Welcome to the Fall Radio Readers Book Club. I’ll be talking today about Margaret Renkl’s Late Migrations: A Natural History of Love and Loss.

Frost is heading our way with the recent cooler temps, so don't forget that some of the plants in your garden can be harvested early, and ripened off the vine. The best example of this is tomatoes, and we'll talk more this week about how to keep your bounty by not letting the cold spoil it first!

This week, it's deer season, so of course our guest is "Mr. Whitetail" himself, Larry Weishuhn! Bow season is already open and rifle season is just around the corner, with so many deer species ready to come home with you.Check out Luke's weekly radio show, and listen to his podcast, Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton and Friends, just about everywhere podcasts are found.

This week, Luke is talking big bore air rifles that shoot both slugs and shot, the Umarex Primal 20 (www.umarexusa.com). The rifle shoots a big 395 grain rifled slug, as well as shot for birds or small game. Luke also talks about a recent hunt on the Choctaw Hunting Lodge (www.choctawhuntinglodge.com) in SE Oklahoma, where his good friend Larry Weishuhn took a boar with a Primal 20 and was very impressed with the power of this heavy duty big bore air rifle that pressured to 4,000 psi. Contact Luke through his website, www.catfishradio.org!

Hello, this is Clifton Butt. I’m an English teacher in Amarillo, Texas, and I’m here to briefly discuss the collection of essays Late Migrations by Margaret Renkl.

We're just seeing our first frosts, and now can be a great time to do a bit of pruning on your fruit trees. While it won't make as much difference this year, you can make a difference in preventing disease, as well as ensuring water for the tree over the winter, and also by helping it to survive over the winter. We'll talk more about what you can do in this week's episode!
