If you can't grow cotton..

grow Pumpkins.

Jason's cousin has a well in Veribest, and they are hauling water in that tank behind Jason to water the pumpkins. They have only done it twice.

Before they planted the pumpkins, they put out 1600 hundred gallons of water on this little space. That is equivalent to like 11 inches of rain on this space. I asked that question.

But the plants are up and growing really fast. In fact, Jason is a little worried we planted them to early.

Why are we planting so many pumpkins?

Last year we had a pumpkin carving contest at church, and this year we thought we would try to grow the pumpkins so we wouldn't have to purchase them.

I have to say, it's all looking really good right now.

Jason said if the deer find them, it's over.

But, it is pretty to look at something green amidst all this dry land.
