[12 piece bucket]

Thanks, Martee, and that appreciation extends to all others who have posted their positive comments. Jeff and I had a lot of fun doing this Series, and we are having even more fun reading what you have to say about it. Keep those posts comin'!

Now, about that 'Green Acres' experience. The Swamp is buffered on its east side by a large pasture. And even though there is a tall stand of bushes and trees bordering the two, there is no mistaking the identity of the pasture's vocal occupants (especially around thier quitting time). And there is also no mistaking our commitment to you, our valued Members: We talk G.O.L.F. it until the cows come home!

But there is more...

On The Swamp's west side, up the road aways, there is a chicken plant. And some time ago, a rooster got loose -- I didn't know there were roosters in a chicken plant -- and strayed into the apartment complex next door. And that rooster can flat tell you about it. Yes indeed he can. And not just in the morning either. We're talking a 24-hour rooster here. Please !

Between the cows and their mellow moos and the rooster's scratchy cock-a-doodle-do, trust me...

The cows are better!

WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!! YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT WHEN I WAS DOWN YONDER YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE COURTESY TO TELL ME THAT THERE WAS A DAMN CHICKEN PLANT NEARBY??????

I HATE YOU NOW!!!!!!
