We have another gardener in the family....my little 2 yr. old grandson loves to pick the green beans and carry them in his mouth, but refuses to eat one....LOL...
My 6 yr. old grandson tells me to hurry and take the picture....'This is getting heavy, Grandma'.Thought I'd share my melon with you....it weighed 10 1/2 lbs., measured 29 1/2 inches around stem to stem and 27 inches around its belly....and was very juicy, with flesh as bright orange as a harvest moon....yum yum. I wish I could have claimed to have grown it...but, my generous neighbor is always bringing fruit, veggies, chocolate milk and root beer for my babygrands....so thanks Gene

Those are the kind I grew when I lived in Missouri. They are SOOOOOOOO good. Great job there Buddy, holding it until Grandma got the picture!
I bet Genie picked that melon up by the Amish or the Mennonite stand in Athens??
Nope Mel, it came from the farmers market stand at SouthSide from a fella who comes up from Waupaca....same place we got the 10 doz. ears of corn.....yummmm...Sy said his arms were 'screaming, put that mussmelon down'
