melon surprise!


Look what Lee found while he was cutting grass in the field: it's a small cantaloupe that grew from seeds he threw out one day! Most folks who intentionally grow cantaloupe are already harvesting them by now, but we've got enough hot weather left for these to make it, I think. There are quite a few of them, and they're unprotected, but so far the chickens, rabbits, and deer don't seem interested. Stay tuned....

Yum!! Sounds almost like a Paul Bunyon story!

I'm calling him Lee Cantaloupeseed. I think it's going to his head.
