I think so. I think his sister is Neva A. Mason and she has another brother that live on Hwy 413, I think that is the right Hwy. I can not remember his name.

Ok Buckoo, since you have made it 1 year, go for the 2nd year. I also hope everyone the best for the New Year. Since I didn't have the peas & all the trimming it maybe a bad year. I did cook the greens last night & Basil wanted then instead of today. Take care everyone. Peggy

Good for you Ken. I need to make up my mind one of these days to do that too.
