Tuesday, April 5 View Page I left Fort francis yesterday where there is no snow so I thought I'd come home and start working on the patch... Only home for one week then gone for two so I think it's going to be hard to get patch ready. I guess everything is up to Jeannine again.lol Sorry! Wednesday, April 6 View Page Brought 40 lbs. of myke through border at pigeon river yesterday. Was called in and not sure if they where going to let me go with the product.After about 20 minutes of research the border patrol said it's not a banned substance and was good to go. If it was mixed with soil it would have been a different story.Everyone had a million question about giant pumpkins. It was fun! Tuesday, April 26 View Page 2145 McMullen.
