You ain't too late, Macca! He'p yerse'f! Pappy's been watchin' a little drama this mornin' in the backyard.

Pappy's cat was real quiet, starin' off the Texas deck at somethin'. Turned out that somethin' was a big chicken hawk settin' on the fence starin' back at Pappy's cat on the Texas deck. Two mighty hunters takin' each other's measure. Two deadly predators, two professional assassins pause in their deadly dance to test each other's skills. The raptor, supreme master of the sky, sudden death from above, feared by all vs. the subtle feline, master of the Texas deck an' bird feeder, deliverin' derisive death threats at small birds who suffer the very real fear they'll die laughin' at her, chokin' on their birdseed, and then they'll be hers.

Their cold, unblinkin' eyes locked in a silent combat of sheer will. Who will blink first an' be forever disgraced? Who will emerge as top predator?

LOOK OUT! There's the mockin' bird makin' a strafin' run at the hawk! Hee hee! That feisty little feller made 'em all scatter! Hee hee! Top predator!

FatPappy throw me one of those scrumptious tasting biscuits up my way. gonna be a hot one today. Pappy did I ever tell you about the time my granddaddy (we called him Pappy) was plowing the corn field with his mule one hot August day?
Well it got so hot the corn started popping and  flying all thru the air, well the old mule thought it was snowing and laid down and froze  to death.:D

Morning all!! Boy the place looks really spiffy. Have you got bacon on those biscuits this morning, Pappy? My favorite all time biscuit guaranteed to raise the cholesterol 100 points is Hardees bacon, cheese and egg biscuit. Ummm makes me hungry writing about it. We had bacon lettuce and tomato sandiches last night for dinner along with one of Jimmy Beeson's excellent watermelons. Husband wanted a cantelope but only watermelons in the front yard. If you want a good one stop off on old Summerfield Road and pick one out. You put your money in a can sitting on the bench. Pretty cool that we live in a town where you can still do those sort of things.

Have a good day all.

Wonder how HOT it was in Iraq today?

Wonder how HOT it was for the men and women of our American military in harm's way fighting for our freedom?

Wonder if they measure how HOT it is in degrees or intensity of the firefight or how close the bullets come to their heads or by the number of American dead?


While we leisure cozily in air-conditioned comfort in front of our computers griping about the weather.

I suppose HOT is measured in one's perspective isn't it?

The high temp in Baghdad today was 112 F with 23% humidity- that's a heat index of around 135. I hope the bad guys were laying under a rock so our guys could try to keep out of that heat!

According to experts, the average constant temperature inside a grave 6 feet deep is 58 degrees.

As of yesterday, the United States has suffered 3673 military casualties in Iraq.

So there are at least 3673 pretty COOL Americans out there not suffering this heat wave.

Wonder if any of THEM would trade places with US?

Are WE lucky or what?

Isn't farming in the desert part of the problem between countries in the Middle east? I believe that is what Isreal is fighting the Palestines over is the desert to farm. They grow lots of stuff including melons at a huge cost to the water supplies but extemely sucessfully as the dry air and controlled water is perfect to farm.

Jim I talked to my son Saturday, its was 132 degrees at his outpost (no a/c). If you want to know how they feel put on your winter coat, a back pack loaded, put some metal plates in all your pockets, some high boots, a heavy metal bucket over your head and stand outside in the sun all day. Oh yea add 15lbs of bullets and two heavy guns, now you are ready....Of course its 35 degrees warmer over there today then here.

He said when the bullets start flying it gets cooler, you forget about the heat.....

Out of his 12 man unit 2 have died and 2 have been wounded how high is that in degrees.....

Morning All!! It is summertime in the south. Wish the air was so thick though. Concerns me for future generations if we don't get a handle soon on fossil fuel emissions. It is a difficult problem.

A little rain would be nice also. My tomatoes are thirsty so I will hook up the hose tonight and give them a drink.

Hope everybody has a good day.

But the outpost only has MRE no mess hall. They are not allow to buy any food from street vendors. Thats why we send all kinds of snacks to them...

Jim if you send a package over with no name on it, then most the time it goes to the bases. The soldiers at the outpost only go back to the base about once a month to get a shower (no running water at a outpost) and some cooked food. We send the packages to our son who will past them out to his buddies. They share everything at a outpost.....

Morning All!! It is nasty hot out this morning. The air is so heavy. The days are certainly getting shorter though. I fell asleep before the weather last night but Eric was hinting that this weather was going to change pretty significantly long range. It is getting closer to fall and it is 8/9/07 so the dog days should be winding down for the year. A little rain would certainly be nice. Stay cool and have a good day.

Mr. Mike stick to bacon. I will let the pig farmers protect their pigs. I now have two highly trained, black belt roosters who will immediately peck your ankles until they bleed if you enter their pen. I have several pictures posted of suspected chicken eaters so they know who you are!! Beware!!!

Jane last week when Pappy was replacing the north still, I mean the north medic'ine making machine. He made me some ankle protectors out of the old metal. I think he fought a few roosters in his time. They work real well....better count them chicks

I would think you'd have more luck if you were to dress up like something else -- maybe Ronald McDonald or the Burger King. If you wear a Col. Sanders mask, they'll know you're looking for them, and any chicken who watches any TV at all knows that those cows in the commercials are in cahoots with Chick-fil-a, so don't put on one of those cow costumes.

Cow costumes!! That's it! That's how we get into the cow pasture and then get the cows to gather round in a circle!

Good thing you can't give me an "off topic" huh??

Everybody have a good day. It is Thursday I think so make it a good one.

Mornin' all. You're right both times, Jane. It's Thursday and it's hot. Pappy's best advice is to drink plenty o' liquids an' ride it out.

In sports, outdoor hammock practice has been canceled this week. We will be runnin' endurance exercises indoors on the couch. Let's hold them delta brain waves steady in a deep sleep pattern for 10 hours minimum.

And in the shopping report, Pappy will most likely be havin' a sale on sun-dried maters sometime this afternoon. Prob'ly about 2:00 the way things is goin'.

Morning All!! It is certainly hot and dry out this morning. Smelled my first skunk so fall is coming I guess. They start showing up or at least their smell does the closer we get to fall. They come in to eat with the cats. The garden is looking sad. Too hot to do anything. It is Friday though and the 100 degree days are suppose to end with today. 90 will seem nice.

Everybody have a good day.

Actually, Hezekiah "German" Johnson is Junior's cousin, who ran his shine in a souped up VW bug (thus the nickname) that he bought cheap from a young feller in a mountain commune who had got to where he was goin' an' didn't want to go no farther. German Johnson is also a mater from North Caroliney that's big, pinkish, an' wrinkled-lookin'. The story I heard was, the balin' wire holdin' the steerin' wheel on come loose in the curve at the bottom o' the hill durin' one o' ol' German's night runs an' he crashed his bug headon into a mater patch, spillin' shine ever'whar. What happened next, they say, is a strange an' wonderful miracle...the shine transformed them maters into German's likeness...round, wrinkled, an' pink. So they named the maters after him.

Strange things happen up in them hills.

Morning All!! I was cleaning yesterday afternoon out from under the TV. We have a bushel basket of extra cords and cables. Every piece of equipment these days come with extra important looking cables. They are yellow and blue and have plastic fancy connections on them and I never throw them away. So I have made the decision to throw them away. Of course I also understand I will need one of those cables, that I haven't touched some of them in years, next week. Isn't that the law?

It is Saturday. Nice breeze blowing this morning but oh so humid. Very uncomfortable outside this morning. I am the keeper of the horses today so I have been out communing with them. The chicks are basically grown now and they finally know the routine. The guneas know to run out when I pick up the stick so it really doesn't take long to get everybody settled for the day.

Have a good day. Cracker have you quit your rain dancing? Spending too much time in the pool.

Morning All!! It is cooler this morning. Thank Goodness!! It really feels like fall is in the air. All the late summer critters are chirping a way. The cricket is really singing out side thank goodness. It always worries me when they are in the house and I might accidently kill them. Then it is 7 years of bad luck.  Hope everybody has a quiet peaceful Sunday.

It is really pretty out this morning but stay cool today. Have a good day.

Morning All!! Mr. Mike got real excited last night at the Town Council meeting when he saw Summerfield Cafeteria Plan on the agenda. Thought he was going to be able to get bacon biscuits at the council meetings but it turned out to be a discussion on a cafeteria of benefits for the employees. Boy was he disappointed.

It is a gorgeous morning out. Hard to believe it will get to 99 this afternoon. Quick everybody run out and enjoy the cool morning. Really feels like early fall. Stay cool today!!.

Mr. Mike, sounds to me like you remember that woman who used to work at the K&W cafeteria years ago and used to be a master at keepin' the line movin' by barking "serve your meat sir?"  She was the cafeteria Nazi.   We were scared of her.


Interesting thing about the cafeteria plan was that Strickland wanted to put the issue of the staff's insurance to the voters, but doesn't think the people are wise enough to vote on the big decisions like our form of government.....

Certainly seems to be the end of summer this week and the begining of the time for kids to go back to school. Sure do wish for some rain. Cracker what are you doing?

Mr. Mike I was thinking the same thing when I read his obit this morning. He always had that nice garden next to the road and usually some sort of critters in his pasture. With the loss of Paul Neal and Jame Leggett we don't have anybody left but Carolyn Collin's Dad to watch garden on old Summerfield Rd. George Price, Paul Neal and James Legett were always in a race in the spring to see who could get their garden planted first. I have always enjoyed watching the competition.

JC could do anything with a tractor...he was a jack of all trades, I first met him over at a friends house when he was helping him put rings in a hogs nose, that old hog liked to made him part of the pen....he taught me how to hand hew logs to build tobacco barns....he would always help out all the widows in town with everything around the farm and house....he would fix it or know someone he would help fix it....yes a part of Summerfield is gone....

What touching memories and stories. And what sometimes gets lost in the shuffle, are that the real treasures of a community aren't the government edifices, or parks or newest developments or road systems, but the truly wonderful giving people who make a community what it really is. All of the fine folks that Jane mentioned indeed added to and made Summerfield what it is and continues to be today. And those folks cannot and will not ever be replaced.

I hope these folks knew how well-liked and respected they were.

It's easy to get wrapped up in our day-to-day scrapes and travails and forget that we're all just doing the best we can, that we're all human and we all have feelings.

It would be nice if we let people know we appreciate them while we have the chance, even if we don't always agree.

I think there are ways to disagree with differing opinions and still show respect for the person holding those different opinions. Just because what I believe is right for me doesn't make me better or smarter than someone who doesn't hold those same beliefs.... and I have no right to belittle that person or talk down to that person simply because they don't think the same way I do.

I think we'd all do well to remember the GOLDEN RULE.

It sure sounds as though these folks did.

I have to tell you all my favorite Howard Ledbetter story. For you folks who weren't around then, Howard and Ollie had a little store on 140 in the curve just before Belford Rd. They sold a little of this and a little of that. Howard could fix anything with a motor on it. To me who didn't know Howard until I was in my early twenties he was this big tall, really gruff sort of mean seeming man. The store often times had a lot of silent farmer types who always quit talking the minute I walked in. My husband was always sending me up there to get things fixed. One day I was up the road at Elaine Kellams picking up some children. I had a Toyota station wagon that I just loved. When I went to get in the car and started it smoke boiled out of the gear shift column like the car was on fire. I rushed back into the house and called my husband who was clueless as to what could be the problem but he said to stop off at Ledbetters and get Howard to check it out. So that is what I did. Stopped off and Howard came out the door. I rolled the window down and told Howard what had happened. He preceded to walk around my car rapidly, kicking the tires and cursing about how those blankety bank japs had killed our boys and then he would kick another tire. I watched slightly fearful but pretty amazed. He finally stopped after a couple of times around the car, kicking the tires and cursing. I finally figured out what he was talking about . I said " Howard that war ended before I was born. I thought we had forgiven them?" Needless to say I did not mention my car problem agaom but quietly drove off.  I never asked Howard to look at my car again.  Writing this makes me laugh all over again, after all I grew up in the big city of Greensboro and wasn't sure what to make of this man.  Howard Ledbetter would give you the shirt off his back if he liked you. He forgave me for driving a Japanese car and we became the best of friends.

You are right Jim the wonderful characters who made our communities unique are vanishing.

Jane, I was just a little tyke when I went to the old Summerfield School for a few years, where and when my Mother taught. One of the old timers over there who I remember, but did not know well, was 'Pop' Bowden and I still remember that he always smoke a pipe or cigar (can't remember which). He seemed like such a character who no doubt was full of interesting life stories.

I remember as well the old Halloween Festival they had there in the old rock gym and the old well attended 'negro minstrels' they once had in the old high school auditorium. I also remember old man Benny Waters giving some of the first 'band lessons' to music students in the Northwest those so many ages ago.

Of course, I also remember some wonderful teachers who guided me toward learning such as Ozelle Bailey and Ruby Smith and Mrs. Cox.  And I'll never forget Margaret Metz whacking me across the wrists with her yardstick when I missed a note while taking piano lessons on Summerfield Road.

I never think of Oak Ridge without thinking of my old departed fishing, beer drinking, barbecue cooking friend, Leo Phelps, as well as my other wonderful OR friend. the legendary Buster Linville, who truly embodied all that Oak Ridge was and ever will be.

I also remember Howard and Ollie and still remember the very day and circumstances when Ollie (and another store keeper in Oak Ridge) were murdered. A crime which to this day remains unsolved.

All those memories and all this remembering makes me feel slightly old tonight.

Morning all!! Only 96 today! A virtual cold wave has hit!! It is pretty sticky out this morning. I have a new bantam rooster. Somebody brought him a couple of weeks ago. I told Hairbrust this morning I believed he was probably made in China by Matel. He is this tiny thing with this tiny squeaky cockadoodle do. So funny to hear the big rooster who has now gotten past the voice changing stage and sounds like a real rooster crow and then the sqeaky answer. So funny in the dark. The guneas are vanishing by the handfuls. Two more didn't show up yesterday afternoon. I hipe they are setting somewhere and something isn't getting them.  Not that we can tell the difference really but it does seem like the three left might all be males.

Everybody have a good day after all it is Friday.

Jane, are his toenails like loose magnets?  Watch out, they might wind up getting swallowed by the little ones.

Pappy when you and Mr. Mike are over scoping out the chicks be sure and check out the tomatoes. Best crop I have had in many years.

Also be careful and do not disturb Ms Cayote and her babies. I think she may be feeding her babies guinea au jus these days. We appear to have lost 5 or 6 in the last month. 5 went out yesterday and only 4 came back last night. I would suspect you and Mr. Mike but I know you couldn't catch them.

Mr Mike, now that we got us more competition, I reckon me an' you might need to work on our howlin' signals fer the occasional after dark chicken raid. We need some secret code howls so them neighborhood coyotes won't know what the plan is.

Two short yips, one long howl means: proceed with Plan C (C fer chicken)

One long howl, two short yips, one long howl means: I done started Plan C, where are you?

One long howl, follered by one long burp means: Mission accomplished. Proceeding to plan D (D fer dessert) Hee hee!

We interrupt this forum fer a test o' the Emergency Howlin' Network. This is only a test.

*** One shotgun blast, one long howl, follered by intermittent yips recedin' rapidly into the distance.***

This has been a test o' the Emergency Howlin' Network. This was only a test. If this had been a actual emergency, hoo wee, you'd find me an' Mr Mike down at the Summerfield Pharmacy buyin' up bandages, Extra Strength Advil, and a pair o' tweezers.

Both us operatives were operatin' under flawed intelligence combined with impaired field judgement capacity, which immediately led to injury sustained in a ground assault when that big tree root on the ground assaulted code name Mr Mike's big toe. This action resulted in immediate cessation of stealth mode resultin' in a rapid command decision to abort mission an' strategically withdraw with all possible dispatch as incomin' hostile fire compromised our flank positions an' also stung like the very dickens. Mission targets (code name chickies) were not acquired on this raid, repeat, targets not acquired.

In other words, Standard Operatin' Procedure was executed. Hee hee!

Code name Mr Mike received the Purple Toe Award for injuries sustained.

Sorry you missed out on the guinea biscuits today Pappy. I bet they were tough er delicious. I am now down to 4 guineas. We had 10 and they are just disappearing no feathers nothing. Very mysterious disappearances. 

We had a wonderful week end in Hickory in some friends swimming pool. It was a wonderful way to spend the weekend. Seems like it has been pretty quiet around here.

Morning All!! Surprise, Surprise!! It sprinkling this morning. I was sure we would have fog but instead we have sprinkles. Every little bit helps. Greensboro is going on mandatory water restrictions on Monday so we need to also conserve as there is a finite amount of water regardless. The prediction last night was the drought will not end until next year. Of course this winter it won't be as noticeable as I won't be trying to grow tomatoes. Have a good day and enjoy the sprinkles.

Morning All!! Pappy it looks like a real fog this morning so one more snow this winter. I certainly will miss you all. It has certainly been fun in my unofficial role as official early morning reporter of happenings with the chicks and other critters on the farm. Pappy and Mr. Mike I wish lots of bacon biscuits in your future. Cracker keep dancing we need rain and snow so you have much to do. Macca see you and Lacka around the area. Maybe we can all meet at Summerfield's new restuarant next month.

Do something nice for somebody today!

Summerfield's getting a new restaurant? Let's set a date!!

I have truly enjoyed getting to know my new friends. This forum has provided that opportunity and I really appreciate it. I've learned a lot over the past couple of years and hope I've formed some lasting friendships. I still think it's amazing that I can feel so close to people I've only interacted with via this forum....

Tomorrow morning when we get up and look out the window to see what the day is like, we can envision Jane out rounding up the chicks (checking to see how many guinea hens she still has).... Maybe we'll all go out and do something GOOD for somebody every day, as she encouraged....

I will miss you...... ♥♥♥

Mornin' all.

Mr Mike and Jane, ol' Pappy has enjoyed every day that started with bacon biscuits an' the mornin' report. It has been one o' my favorite things about the forum. I'll miss it, but I reckon I won't hafta get up so early to beat Mr Mike to the biscuits now. Hee hee!

I done lost count on the fog tally, but mebbe that gets us somewheres close to 4 snows an' 1 flurry with a nitro boost from Skiddles fog in the holler!

Y'all save some biscuits fer Macca an' the Crackah! Don't kick no dirt on that far yet, we might need more java directly.

When's that new restaurant openin'? Whoever gets there first, save ol' Pappy a seat. Chewin' the fat has special meanin' with good friends an' bacon biscuits.

Pappy's glad to have met you, Macca. I have gotten way more out of gettin' to know all my forum buddies than I'll ever be able to give back.

I wish I could find a money investment as good! HAW!

Just want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prays while my son is in Iraq. He will be home for his 2 week leave around September 10th. Boy have I got a bacon biscuit for him.

Mr. Mike I hope you are going to feed him more than Bacon Biscuits.  You give that boy a hug from me.  I know you and your family will enjoy every moment with him.

AMEN, HAIRBRUSH!!

MIKE, PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT WE CAN DO TO MAKE IT BETTER FOR YOUR SON. SEVERAL OF US HAVE TALKED ABOUT SENDING "CARE PACKAGES," BUT SO FAR I KNOW I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING.

MAYBE THAT WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO SAY "TA TA FOR NOW" (as Lacka would say --- sorry about the " " s!! :D) TO THE FORUM.....♥♥♥
