The pleasures of life

[westtexas]

Can anybody think of anything better that our Lord has created than an ice cold piece of watermelon and a shade tree? No? Didn't think so!

My goodness, tex... I was going to make a post on this very subject but was sidetracked...

I was enjoying this particular pleasure today for the first time in a looonnnggg time.

Now, I think cold watermelon on a hot day is the best thing ever! Unfortunately one cannot buy real watermelon in Idaho... at least not at any grocery store, nor any of the fruit markets around this area.

But, I was in Oregon last week and found a place, not too far over the boarder that sells genuine, real watermelon. I hadn't the time to break it open until today but oh my, my, my it was delicious.

I can't tell you how much I hate, hate, HATE, I SAY.. that man-messed up, anemic, blah, tasteless, pink slop they call seedless watermelon. :verysick


But the watermelon I bought last week was ripe, with dark red flesh and black seeds and it was every kind of wonderful!!!

It's a toss-up for me between watermelon and lemonade.

On a hot day, I drink lots of water after being outside --- and to rejuvenate myself I eat something salty when indoors cooling off, such as a pickle or some olives out of a jar. then I feel half human again and can take some more heat. Watermellon is good, too, but not always readily available, and although I'm sure it has potassium, it still does not have the salt it needs to pick me up again.

It's pretty obvious that all of y'all come from somewhere with a lot of trees. No comments on the shade tree? While the melon, lemonade, or water are excellent-half of the pleasure is the shade tree. There's a little community not far from me-Notrees Texas-that shade tree is a commodity!
See what yall are takin for granted? TREES
Watermelon AND a shade tree They go together like Grandma and apple pie :p

nah, a day at the gym on the matt whether i tap or not(prefered the latter) is the pleasure of life. IT would be even better if this didnt aggreviate or induce the asthma.

That Florida heat got to you brother. Doing ANYTHING that induces asthma CAN"T be better than watermelon!!

exercise that involves cardio induces asthma. i never feel it when it comes on. i just gas out. that is all i get. i had that for years but didnt know what it was. i thought my cardio was weak. only in wrestling is it the worst. what does really cause it seems to be stress and or also allergies from the mighty fine grass or whatever(dogs hit me once and while). when that happens it get laid out for days. not so with mma. i recover in a few minutes.
