Hey LaDonna and Carol and all... I've got to tell you about the situation I got myself into Saturday when I was out tilling the garden. That little garden is about 30' x 25'... anyway... I was going down one of the rows with that TroyBilt Tiller and got to the end. I raised up on it to turn it around and that rascal took off, just flying across the yard toward my chain link fence. Just jumped right out of my hands... I had to run to keep up with it and then had a time trying to turn it off or slow it down!! I'll bet that was a sight for sore eyes!!!! That old 74½ year old woman chasing a tiller across the yard. I'll tell you what... when I caught that thing my heart was beating a hundred times a minute, I do believe! I didn't know that machine could go so fast! Scared me to death... I had to go and sit down with a glass of tea and wait to calm down before I went back and finished. Got that place planted though. I can tell you this, I'm getting too old for all that excitement... Now all I have to do is pray for rain and wait and watch...

I'm glad you're Ok Mary. That could have been serious, but, please forgive me, I started laughing, just imagining seeing you running after your tractor. Someone should have been there with a movie camera. <grin> That's as bad as me. I have foot problems and my feet and legs swell. The doctor said to elevate my foot. He said to "hang it from the ceiling". I said and you want a picture of that don't you. Can you imagine what that would look like? <grin> Emma From: Mary R Mungo<mailto:MRMungo@Comporium.net> To: southern-chat@rootsweb.com<mailto:southern-chat@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 22, 2008 8:21 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] KY.
