water melon
I got a water melon for Adems graduation on Thursday .It was small more like a Honey due than a watter melon but still it reminded me of dad.His belly was as cool as it got water melon belly is what I thought. He was all ways a produce snob we not paying more then 5cents a ld for the very best as we would drive east to west from stand to stand . He could pick em cant remember a bad melon dad picked,then came the spiting and pitching for distance with the seeds. Ive got to be more fun for my kids

yes indeed. In fact, I've been thinking of Dad and watermellons lately myself. Picked a very nice one for a trip to Reachle's cabin and thought about how he taught me to pick them. Then just yesterday I had the kids with me in Costco and we went up to the big bin of mellons and I told them how Dad took me down to his parents garden and showed me the watermellon patch and taught me how to pick one. Then Aidan thumped a few until he hit gold and his face lit up when he heard the sound. Mmmm sweet memories of summer with Dad...
