Grant,Its good to see another great garden,my spring/summer garden was the greatest.I was tired,but planted a large fall,and just came in from looking at it.The Miss.purple hull peas,will have to pick tomarrow along with
okra.The Christmas butter beans,radish,turnips,squash,rutabeggars,onions,new okra,and others will come in about 2-3 weeks.We planted more rutabeggars,cabbage,collards,and onions thursday.I have to get the brussel sprouts and
broccoli,in the ground.I feed my scraps to fresh pork,all summer,and today we got two of the fresh porks,back from the slaughter house,fresh hams,baccon,sausage,for the winter.I see some great deal up in Wi,on some tractors and
equipt.,on E-BAY,sure wish I was closer sometime.Have a great winter,but I wouldn't trade the sunshine of the south,for nothing(hate the snow)!!! JIM.---South Miss.
