A Tight Sqeeze Waiting To Happen
Circumstances have conspired to prohibit me from taking any sort of rode-ride for over a year. Over a YEAR? Is that right? Wow….. It was first a little knife work on my back, then came winter, next came my little door-to-door neighborhood hiking tour that kept me tied up for 6 months and then some. Finally with no excuses remaining and the weather near perfect this past weekend, it was time to break away for some much-needed R&R (riding and rejuvenation), so I dropped a hint to the (always ready to ride) Adcock boys and the plan was set to meet at the Antique tractor show in Waverly on Saturday. We hooked up there with new buddies Meleia, Dale and Freddy for a tour of points of interest in Humphreys County. A highlight of the day was a side trip to Andy Dodson’s farm where that worthy was busy processing his guinea corn crop, old school style. Sweet sorghum molasses, squeezed into submission. Andy gave us an interesting demonstration and a tour of the place as well. It was a good time and we walked away with some samples of the sweet stuff to boot. Thanks to him, his crew and to Meleia, who shared some insight into the family history of the place. A pretty good day and just what I needed to recharge the system a little. Thanks guys.
