Hay business can't be all that bad or is your husband workin' 24/7?

Ha! It really was, only about $11,000 last year, that's total,
before
any taxes. And he's nearly working 24/7, put in 163 hours in the
last
two weeks, and it will be picking up more soon. He works outside of
our business for a local big-time farmer, and that pays pretty good
for around here. That farmer deals in everything, from row crops to
hogs and turkeys. Got a good deal on the house and land as well.


A question always comes to mind for us west coast people, and that
is, other than gumbo, how do you cook okra?

Slice, batter, and fry,
stir fry, boil, grill, steamed (baby okras)...

Stew with tomatoes or saute in a little butter.

Sounds like you should be planting portables (pots and buckets and
such). If the new house isn't to far away, maybe you could start
preparing the ground there. You could give the present owner some
token sum of money for rent so that it wouldn't be misconstrued as
taking possession.

the pots and buckets was what I was thinking on. Be easier to tend
to
everyday and easy to move.

Well, I smell a little stinker...Shew!

Wasn't me!

Are you sure about that?? lol! No, I'm surprised you didn't smell
that
one all the way over to where you are at...let's just say...it was
very strong!

Catch ya later, watch that fence post there now. Gotta get round
to
replacing it! lol
