    Arkansas' 41st annual watermelon festival is this August. It's in Hope, the boyhood home of Bill Clinton and Mike Huckabee.

      Thanks for sharing. Wish I could visit. I look at seed catalogs and am amazed at how many types of watermelon there are.

    watermelon + salt = addictive.

      Ignatius I brought to work with me tonight watermelon, and a coworker asked me if I've ever tried it with salt, I just heard of that combination for the first time tonight, I will definitely give it a try.

      Because as a person you have the right to work as long as you are able and have the want, don't be ageist.
