Clear. 6 degrees. Wendi had to come down. Wise County schools out because of snow. I washed sheets and hung them out. Sewed some. Curtis was in. I went up to Jennings late.
Footnote: Wendi is her granddaughter who lives in Big Stone Gap, Va. which is in Wise County. What, she washed and hung sheets outside to dry - it is 6 degrees. Must have warmed up quickly or she is one tough woman. Curt is her brother-in-law. Jennings is her brother who lives nearby.
Here are some interesting things I found in a little Southern States notebook at my Mother's house. Those of you from the area know what Southern States was. Others - Southern States was a big store that sold feed for cattle and all the other things that were needed to run a farm - fencing, posts, wire, cutters - whatever was needed.
Put a book of matches (matches up) and then plant peppers cabbage tomatoes
Don't plant onions & peas close to each other.
Plant radishes under squash & cucumbers.
Burn an old leather shoe or glove about every 30-45 days will keep the snakes away.
plant little onions in close to rose bush and no bugs will bother.
Happy Birthday to Travis Edward Shuler - # 40.
