About two hours ago we had a thundershower. I'd just straightened the pole holding the strings holding the pea vines, that had fallen over while I was away, braced it, stretched the strings holding them, added another, and was starting to pick peas. Got beans that need picking to take to the churches ... but not enthused about picking with boots on. I know ... I'm not supposed to kill the kid in me ... and I may be edging up toward second childhood ... ... but when it comes to picking bush beans in mud ... ... I ain't there, yet! I hope that you're all enjoying your weekend. o j

geez... I don't own but 1 red fancy shirt, so I wear pink! lol Hey young lady, would you do your trip over again? I wish I could have met you and your bud! how many pictures did you take? do you have an album we can view? glad to have you back, safe and sound! (well, at least safe! LOL)

Glad to hear that you came through it without too much dislocation or discomfort, Moni. Watch those chainsaws ... mistakes can be costly to keeping one's bodyhood intact! Small saws do for fingers - chain saws do for legs (or worse). We wouldn't want to have to report that Moni wasn't quite all there any more! I hope that the rest of the year goes exactly right for you and yours. ole joyful

Hi, Moni! I think I see Mary Ann. I met her in person once when Nita was here. She passed away also several years ago. I can't remember her last name.
