Re: Other stuff..

Hi Janis,
 Hi from one farmers daughter to another. I live in western Kentucky, USA.
We have some hot summers here and it gets pretty warm for the pumpkins, But
I keep trying. Had some bad luck this season but am gearing up for next
season. Please visit my webpage at  http://www.wko.com/~davis  and check
out my Duncan The Pumpkin.
Oh yes, please sign my guestbook.
Belle
