It's been WAY too long since we got to take off one shoe for being good in the morning, and then if we were good for the rest of the day, we could take off the other! AwWw...those were the days when the little "flowers got watered" with lemonade! Where have those days gone?!LaceyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01489012746999665550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10885501.post-1131228430962250772005-11-05T16:07:00.000-06:002005-11-05T16:07:00.000-06:00Wow!

I had a great-grandmother who used to kill snakes with here butcher knife if they came anywhere near her.

But I agree, I think you have to see it to believe it. Maybe I can get him to tell it with me at the January meeting in Jackson.

Horrific boy, doing that to his poor mother.<BR/><BR/>It IS a great story, but it belongs entirely to my daddy.

I want to grow up on a farm when I grow up. It doesn't work. Maybe I can raise my own children on one.<BR/>We did grow up tasting it though, a few feed cows here and there and chickens sometimes, and always a garden. And then going to Grandpa's was heaven on earth.Laura Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13940382947550627810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10885501.post-1131062055160492752005-11-03T17:54:00.000-06:002005-11-03T17:54:00.000-06:00I agree, it's a grand post.Sometimes I wonder what...I agree, it's a grand post.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I wonder what I would be like if I had been raised on a farm.

Where we live, you can still count on there being one in each box! All the kids know to stay alert and aware.<BR/><BR/>While camping in Tennessee this summer, 12 yo J and I saw two or three copperheads...and the youth minister had to kill one that came into our camp.
