We’re so blessed to have our Uncle James with us to help troubleshoot problems with everything from replacing the wiring on a tractor to replacing the handle on a shovel.
James has great stories: picking cotton by hand, working cattle in the days before squeeze chutes, manning a pusher on the ICW, learning what “jaywalking” was in Hawaii as a young Navy seaman, and hunting at night in the backwoods around Pledger.
He’s still raking hay at the farm and wants everyone to quit monkeying around; we all say, “Yes sir!”.
