...there were a bunch more good watermelon, which I didn't keep as good a
record on...

My 544.4 was 20 lbs. lighter than the chart, but still good for a new
personal best.

A beautiful fall day, and a great time was had by all!

Congratulations to the new world record holder and all the other growers out
there who have worked hard all season for this date!  WE MADE IT, praise
God!

God bless,
Chris
