Hi everyone, it has been a while since I have been on. I barely have time to breath these day's, but now that my garden has slowed down and the harvest has mostly been picked, canned and frozen, maybe I will find a bit more time to catch up and start posting again.

All your melon pics look real good! I love a great melon, including watermelon.

Here is a picture or three, of my favorite that I grew out this year: Orangeglo

I had sprouted some watermelons but none really survived, nor did any that I seeded directly into the garden...except one that fell into a potted plant that lived on the front porch all season. The other day Mom was watering that plant and came to tell me of a strange growth in the petunias she had never seen before. :D

Yep...that little watermelon had sprouted and grew one, tiny little melon a tad smaller than a tennis ball. I'll get a pic of it tomorrow...cute as the dickens! :gig
