Emne: Black Walnuts
I have a black walnut tree in my yard that is mature enough to have the nuts. Several people have said oh just leave them for the squirrles they are messy to work with and get brown stain everywhere when you try and crack them. My Question is "Doese anyone here have personal experience with them? And is it just as they say not worth the effort?

THE CLOTHESLINE

A clothesline was a news forecast
To neighbours passing by.
There were no secrets you could keep
When clothes were hung to dry.

It also was a friendly link,
For neighbours always knew,
If company had stopped on by
To spend a night or two.

For then you'd see the fancy sheets
And towels out on the line;
You'd see the company tablecloths
With intricate design.

The line announced a baby's birth
To folks who lived inside,
As brand new infants clothes were hung
So carefully with pride.

And the lines were full of diapers,
So white and bright and clean.
Because in those days of yore,
In stores Pampers were not yet seen.

The ages of the children could
So readily be known,
By watching how the sizes changed
You'd know how much they'd grown.

It also told when illness struck,
As extra sheets were hung;
Then nightclothes, and a bathrobe, too,
Haphazardly were strung.

It said, "Gone on vacation now,"
When lines hung limp and bare.
It told, "We're back!" when full lines sagged,
With not an inch to spare.

But clotheslines now are of the past,
For dryers make work less,
Now what goes on inside a house
Is anybody's guess.

I really miss that way of life.
It was a friendly sign,
When others knew each other best,
By what hung on the line.

ScarletRose: ajtgirl please excuse my daughter view on these wonderful flowers. The thing I love about them is every year they come back with different shades of color. they do take over, they are nearly destructable so why fight them ours grew along the back of our motel where nothing grew. all up and down that long stretch of building 6 ft stalks with abundant flowers grew year after year. 2. When I was a child my mom and I and girl friends made lovely flower dolls out of them and also used a shrub rose called Rose of Sharon. This was in Pennsylvania. 3. all the beautiful farm gardens of ole had them in a row at the back of their big flower gardens....a "Kodak" momment for me when I found that 9 years ago I had them growing at our newly bought motel. sniff sniff
