I asked my wife where Jones County was, she said she didn't know. I said well I thought it was a typo, but is there a Jones Country here? Oh she says and tells me about Jones Country. I am going to have to drive over there and see what if anything is left. So far I haven't been able to find old pictures on the internet, but I gotta see that.<br /><br />I am glad to have only seen this cat once, hopefully it has moved on.

It's a balancing act. My plan is to get some guinea fowl this year and to set up their coop by the garden. Supposedly, they eat all the pests (squash bugs are my biggest garden enemy), but they don't scratch up the ground and they don't eat the veggies. I guess I'll find out next spring.Mosaicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12403235823011893468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481754257226608455.post-28091210950375676422013-08-06T12:22:34.507-07:002013-08-06T12:22:34.507-07:00Just a word about the Kentucky Wonder Brown seeds....Just a word about the Kentucky Wonder Brown seeds. I also got some from a survival seed company. I grew them in 2012 and again this summer. They grow great and produce a lot, but I'm not going to grow them again. I find that if you don't pick them very young and small, they get tough and stringy. Some people like that about them, but I just can hardly swallow a mouth full of string. Ugh. Well, maybe if I was starving, but we're not there yet. BTW, where have you been?
