JOBS????

Relatives jobs

Granddaddy Poppa? He rocked in a chair either on the porch or in a corner of the living room and gave out baby ruths and spit in his spit can. Does anyone know what he did prior to what I know of him?


Grandaddy Vowell Ran a small country store out by Franklin's and Imogene's near the quiver river bridge. Also worked in the meat market of the grocery store in Ruleville


Granny Vowell Took care of everyone? Cooked the best biscuits? Was she a stay at home mom? Any help here?

Keep adding to this
thanks ed

Down to the Wire

Once we were playing pinochle at the table in Jack's and Jo's little kitchen on Deering Street. We got down to the final play...depending on the card I laid down, we won or lost. Jack sat at my side...he did his wow-wow laugh, like girl, you know you are not smart enough to pick the right card, which card are you going to pick, nope, not that one, you are going to pick the wrong card, no guts no blue chips. I laid down my card. Blue Chips. We won. Ladies and Gentlemen, that night I rocked!

memories building houses

Remember when gary and ronald wayne built a play house where the chicken coop and out house used to be?

Well I came that summer and they still did not have a roof on it so we attempted to design and construct a roof. Finally gave up and slept out in it one night. Took about 15 minutes for the skeeters to find us and then we were back in the big house.

I still wonder why none of us became filthy rich house designers and builders? LOL

Food, Food, Glorious Food

One spring Tom Harrison decided the Vowell family needed a crawfish boil. We traveled from Baton Rouge to Cleveland with a black plastic garbage sack of crawfish. I think they were all alive and rustley. They were pretty pungent and required open windows at stoplights, but this was the olden days before the earth is as warm as they tell us it is now, and those crawfish did not spoil. We boiled them in Jack and Jo's backyard on Deering, along with the potatoes and corn and garlic. Were there onions? At any rate there seemed to be lots of left-over potatoes, and the next day Lady and Nell (I think) suggested potato salad. They were food genuises. I still hanker for that crawfish-flavored potato salad.

Blogging

Hey everybody! Now that I have the dressing done and my computer fixed, maybe I can join in on the visiting.
