The Winner for July is….Ed Myers.
And in honor of one of my favorite sayings: “It was like Christmas in July!” the prize for July is one of Pap and Paul’s Christmas cds.
All the commenters with names in orange-have a great website-go for a visit and I know you’ll be glad you did!
Tipper
i always enjoy my visit here 🙂
With all this heat and humidity the snow picture was just what I needed! Congratulations Ed!
Christmas….Beautiful photo. Reminds me that home is where you are. Beautiful.
Hey, congratulations to Ed and enjoy the snow!!
Tipper, we all love your blog and find many interesting things in the comments too.
That pool looks so good!! We’ve just reached 110* this afternoon at 2:30.
Tipper,
I think Bf will find her “case knife” beans on a food exchange website…I have found several that have them…The “closed knife look” of the bean, hince the name..
We have grown Turkey Craws…but never case knife…I just love these old bean names..I saw on one site 20 seeds for 3.00..but they were sold out…sounds like a fun pole bean to grow…
Now I have to add that to the list for next years tryouts…
Thanks Tipper,
I love coming here when you do this, I have found some wonderful blogs to visit.
Tipper,
Congradulations to Ed Myers on
winning the Christmas CD. Its a
good one! I have it along with
“Lamplighting in the Valley” and
most of the time they stay in my
player, so I can get a dose any
time I need it.
I’m waiting patiently (and its so
hard in this heat) for the video
of those beautiful girls singing
in the old Cataloochee Church.
…Ken
Tipper,
How very cruel…I am so doggone hot. I came in and clicked on the Blind Pig…what do I see but a cool dip in the water but no way to get my toes in it…Oh, shoot!
Think I’ll go to the Wally World and buy a little blue kiddie pool…Do you think the water would boil in it before I could get it filled…We have an extreme heat warning for the Knoxville area today…
How hot is it?
It is so hot the ‘maters cook in their skins and all I have to do is walk along the vines and drop’em in the jars….ha
Congratulations to Ed Myers…
That snow looks so inviting as well…but I am not going to wish for snow just yet….ONLY A POOL…
Thanks Tipper
does anyone remember the old time beans called “case knife”?now i dont know if that was the real name or the name of someone who shared the seed , you know they did call them after the one who gave them , do you remember or was you too young? anyway they were real good and i,m looking for someone who would be willing to save a few for me
as always you are doing a great job and we appreciate you
have a good day
This site means so much to me and I’ve forwarded to others and hope that they do read it when you send it. It brings back so memories of my family which are long gone, especially my dad. The music is wonderful.
The June bugs are so thick this year. I’m still picking blackberries as big as quarters and the yes, the June bugs are still out that as big as ever and plentiful. I tried to pick enough of the eaten or drying ones for my chickens to eat today
