Electric Melons!

by Ed Williams

Know what one of my favorite summer pastimes is?

Eatin’ watermelon.

That’s right, just eatin’ some cold, juicy watermelon.

People these days don’t really know how to eat one. It‘s been made way too civilized. Back when I was growing up, we enjoyed melons every day, and I learned how to really eat and enjoy one.

He always grew melons, corn, squash, butterbeans, and a few other things. It seems like we mostly pulled melons in either June or July of each year.
