My friend gave us 3 grocery bags full of red beets.  I decided to tackle bag #1 this morning. 
I had never canned beets before today.  They sure make quite a red mess!!!
Just a few minutes ago, there was a knock at my front door.  I said, "Oh NO! I'm not dressed!"  I was still in my robe because I had started this beet job early this morning.  Anyway, it was my mother-in-law bringing by part of her apple pie that she made yesterday.  She has an apple tree in her pasture.
I'm waiting for batch #2 to come up to pressure... 
I've found this really neat site for canning.  It's especially good for us newbies.  Here it is: http://www.paulnoll.com/Oregon/Canning/index.html
