The man that worked for my Daddy came running from the barn and gathered me up and went running to the house. Mama doctored me up. But that didn't keep me from playing under those Mulberry trees. The kids used to catch them in Canning jars or Mayonnaise jars with holes poke in the lids. Then took the jars to bed to watch as they feel asleep.
Lightning bugs are truly great to watch on a dark summer night.
I can smell the roses and honeysuckle as I type. My mom is 86 years old, lived thru the depression, and a lot of hard times. My kids can hardly believe the wonderful times my mom had back then. I'm afraid if I don't save the information somehow, it will be lost forever. My parents were also of the front porch spittin' seed type.
