grants. " 

Well James, you are right about the grant thing, but my friends are not in 
those circles.  For the most part they are independent farmers and gardeners 
just like this group.  While I have not met anyone on I-40 like your friend, 
I do meet, on a weekly basis, my native neighbors riding in their horse draw 
wagons, greeting me with their beer cans in hand and a confederate flag on 
the wagon someplace.   My one wish, before I die in my chosen state of TN, is 
to meet someone from here who  will not say to me "you're not from here are 
you? :)))))  Then again Greene County is an entity all unto itself....ask 
anyone who lives in a bordering county.  All my neighbors are great, mind 
their own business, keep their dogs on their own property, but are always 
willing to help if the need arises.
