Robert,
She will do her best and it's nice to see how proud you are.
PS, we want her to win also
My grand girl is going to state rally this weekend she has been going since she was a sophmore. She placed her first year and won last year. I am hoping she does well this year, even if she doen't win, I will love her for her effort. Although, I really want her to win, I need just need to stay low key about it. Sweat.....it out....Pawpaw...lol If you think I'm proud, you're right, I can't help it.
Most of my garden is fenced in but this is a new part that's not and the rabbits are a pest.
JJ,
I use dawn to keep the mosquitoes and no see ems porpulation down. Just a couple drops in a bowl of water works
I gotta keep a bar of soap, in a knee-high, to keep deer from eating on my fruit trees.
Fried rabbit sounds good though.
My momma always used Cayenne..they don't seem to like it
Well, I got a rabbit eating on my straw berry and blue berry plants, I put some bug powder on them but if he don't get the message, he may find out what rabbit gumbo is!
Bet it costs more than 3.00 to eat a chicken strip in the park LOL. Great items and awesome link Ron Thanks
Okay, gang! All that talk yesterday of chicken dinners, pie 'n such put me in a nostalgic mood to start sniffing around the web for some vintage Knotts Berry Farm memorabilia. Here are a few of the things that I found.
A menu from 1955!
Fast forward to 1970...
Observe that the price for a chicken dinner only went up .75 cents in 15 years.
Below is an aerial view of the park in 1953...
And finally a 1949 brochure and map of the park...
I lied! I have one more picture that really puts things into perspective in relation to "Then & Now." Look at the sign in front of this 1965 Service Station...
And, for anyone who might be interested, I am also attaching a link to a fantastic online Photo Album containing more than a thousand vintage photographs from around the world showing snapshots from a bygone era. You will find the link directly below this paragraph. Cheers, my friends!
