Is pissing me off this year.



I've purchased 4 this year, all from Luling, Tx...yellow meat, black diamond, seedless red, stars n stripes.....all 4 have been let downs.


I don't really know why I'm so pissed off, but I am damnit.



If the Pecos cantaloupes are anything less than stellar this year, I don't know if I can be held accountable for my actions.

Let one drink a fifth of vodka overnight. That should make them better.

Heard some info on this today.
The best watermelons will be from mid-July thru August.
Strawberries have been terrific this year.
Also, Cantelope.

Washington Parish watermelons, or nothing at all.

The farmers here in FL are selling seedless melons for a buck or less on the streets. The few I've got have been very good..

I got one about two weeks ago and it was awesome. I should have bought two.

I haven't seen any Sugartown watermelons this year yet. These are as good as the best.

I love those yellow meat....usually can find them early in the season but for about the last 5 years I can't find them anywhere...black diamonds are always solid...sorry to hear your report...hold out for a washington parish mellon and you might save the summer yet.
