Oh....the choice of my location was no accident.
I plan to spend a LOT of time on the Okaloosa Island, Navarre, and Pensacola Beach piers. Not to look at bikinis either.

Lots of good fishing in that area (crabbing as well). Can't get blue crabs for shit out here on the left coast.
But...crabs can be had pretty easily...Lots of good fishing in that area (crabbing as well). Can't get blue crabs for shit out here on the left coast.
Chattanooga isn't bad. My beef is with Knoxville, but that's way better than dealing with ATL. As for Spring Break.....it ain't what it used to be!
Well....its been a while.
Retirement looms.
13 nights of work left.
Came down to cut the grass.
I think I'll change my name to Kernel Joe Chikn.
Had a dream on the way down to Bama.
Who wants to play the part of Uncle Frank?
Before and after. I like my Swisher. It's a beast.

Unfortunately, I do not like mint julep. Bourbon...I like bourbon str8.
Seriously, yaupon is making a comeback as a tea crop. Itll give red bull a run for its money.
Only north american plant that contains caffeine.

The big english tea companies played a hand in giving it its Latin name. Yaupon was running them out of business. It doesn't make you vomit.
Met another neighbor yesterday.
"You ain't from round here are ya."
Well no, but I sure as hell ain't putting on with my southern dialect.
I think he was putting me on. I'm sure my real estate agent already told him who I was and where I was from.

There is this thing called a hard row to hoe. And when that row is over a mile long, you find out what you are made of.
Last year, the module builder control box was 140° and , well.... uncomfortable.

As burned out as I am, just another day to survive, just another hurdle to get over, another tool stolen, more regulation, more . g o v shit, in a long line of shit. Nothing we cant handle. Always find a way to deal with it. Move on.
Better than W.T. coming through visiting with his vermin and Ben "Beast" afterward. We have it pretty good, all things considered. jmho
Liberty replaced dicamba, without the drift issues. Cant tell it doesn't work just as good.

That bottom pic will tell you a lot from the difference how kids turned out then vs now!
Yep. My dad started picking cotton when he was six years old, in the same little "town" where j-husky is now.
All of my kin born in the 30s on back picked cotton by hand....in North Carolina.
As far as I know, grandaddy didnt plant any cotton after WW2 ended.

Yes there are.......but it depends on what is predicted to make money. We have loads of cotton every few years.

Ain't even moved to Bama yet, and Tarheels is shouting me down, defending their cotton fields against deep south besmirchification.
If you haven't already, check out the Solon Dixon Center. Not sure if they still have any programs open to the public but they probably do from time to time. https://sdfec.auburn.edu/
Me and mt creek need to come down and give you a welcome
Had a 6 month contract in Andalusia in the early '70s, right out of college (War Damn!). Lived in a wide spot in the road called River Falls. Some of the best folks I ever met, but didn't do to mess with. Sure fire way to tell that you have for sure found a local is when he says 'come on an' get on my car' - not in, on. As in when cars resembled a buggy. When we were there everybody that was anybody had a pulpwood truck with 3 big ass bow saws on a rack on top of the cab. If you have already checked County Fair, Goat Ropin', Legion Stew and Klan Rally off your bucket list, that Rattlesnake Rodeo is a must. Welcome to God's Country.
He'd put us to work. But I'm good with that.

I got no emotional ties to NC, just the last stop on the train at mil retirement so we stayed for the kids sake in school. Drove by a field about a mile from the house today and thought of this thread. It has tobacco this year but was cotton last year. They get pretty big over in this area
