How big was your grin? That's like winning the lottery for a gardener.
Around here they package s**t and sell it for ten bucks. I miss the days
in Louisiana when friends would tell us to come on out and get a pickup
load of s**t and they would help us load. One friend was cleaning out a
cow shelter that hadn't been used in ten years and loaded my truck with
front end loader. He got jams, jellies, and pickles until we moved.
