A FEW DAYS AGO I STOPPED BY TO SEE MELVIN AND THE BOYS…WELL REALLY, I MOSTLY JUST PICKED CHERRIES…I DIDN’T KNOW MELVIN HAD A CHERRY TREE UNTIL HE TOLD ME.  I HAD CALLED HIM TO LET HIM KNOW THAT I MIGHT BE GOING TO TENNESSEE TO MAKE A “PITCH” TO A MAJOR RETAIL CHAIN…I’M HOPING THAT THEY’LL CARRY MY BOOK ABOUT BOB…WE’LL SEE.

ANYWAY…MELVIN TOLD ME TO COME OVER AND PICK SOME OF THE CHERRIES.  WHILE I WAS BUSY, HE SNIPPED OFF A START FROM THE TREE FOR ME TO PLANT IN OUR YARD!

MAYBE I’LL HAVE A TREE SOMEDAY THAT CAME FROM MELVIN…I REALLY HOPE SO!  I GOT SPECIAL TREATMENT…HE GAVE ME A RIDE AROUND THE FARM ON THE BACK OF HIS GOLF CART.

SEE THE BENCH ON THE BACK?  THAT’S WHAT I SAT ON!  WHEN WE GOT DONE WITH THE CHERRY TREE, IT WAS TIME TO PUT THE HORSES AWAY FOR THE NIGHT, SO MELVIN WENT AND CALLED THEM OUT OF THEIR ‘HANG-OUT’ SIDE OF THE BARN.(HELLO BOB!)  THEY FOLLOWED HIM TO THE OTHER END, AND THEN IN THEY WENT FOR THE NIGHT.

I’M HOPING I CAPTURED SOME GOOD IMAGES TODAY..THE FUN PART WAS…HE LET ME GET THEM SETTLED FOR THE NIGHT …HAPPY GIRL, THAT’S ME.

OHHHHH…MAC IS SO MUDDY!!
