3. What country folk do...
Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, July 7, 2017
We shell peas! Last Friday I bought a bushel of purple-hull peas. Shelling them was an all-day job, but now I have plenty of peas in my freezer. When we eat them this Winter, they will taste of this Summer's sunshine!

And to go with the Purple-hull Peas - Purple Okra! Very pretty, but Purple Okra turns green like regular okra when it is cooked.

5. Solar Power (Sky Watch Friday)
McNairy County, Tennessee, USA, July 10, 2017
Driving along in southwestern Tennessee, I was seeing lots of corn fields, and then suddenly there were acres and acres of solar panels for generating electricity!

I hope you are having a beautiful day!

    I really enjoy seeing the Tupelo guitars. I remember sitting on the porch with my Granny shelling peas -- a wonderful memory. I love okra. The mallards look quite happy. Three cheers for solar power! Fun post. Happy Friday!

    Love those guitars!! Seems like solar panels are popping up everywhere. We have some really large ones in our local desert.

    I love okra, especially pickled. I used to shell peas and snap beans with my grandma.

    I love street art (such as the Elvis guitars). Purple hull peas remind me of gardening when I lived in Arkansas - they do like the heat. We used to grow the purple okra as ornamentals (beautiful flowers). You brought back some memories. Mississippi is one of four states I have never visited and it does deserve a visit!
