Hello,my name is Elysia Gadberry, and I'm Gerry Gadberry's daughter, I'm typing because I'm faster at it then my dad. Plus he said I could talk to you people for a while. My dad wakes up at 6:00 am, and doesn't come in until around 6:00 pm. because he stays out in the garden stirring his prized poop, that he's very proud of. He works for Eastern Washington University. HE LOVES POOP!!!! I remember when it was in the winter, and we were driving in a hurry to go get horse poop at some ladie's barn, and we got pulled over in our old 86 Bronco in which he used to put his poop in.(Now uses a 2,001 ford f150, works alot better because now I don't have to smell it the whole way home, and when I complain, he says that's best smell in the world!) Anyways, my point is, is that my dad's the best pumpkin farmer in the world, because he manages to grow county records, in the small space he has.......now isn't that an inspiring story!!!!!!!
Please respond to my message!

Oops, I ment 1970 Bronco, with the heater on and horseflys swirling around It was pretty gross, the cops first words were, "what do you got in there, dead cats?"

What a nice daughter. I can't get my kids to come and get manure with me. Now, maybe if you help with the weeding also.

My youngest son came with me to get some in my F150 ( tell your dad he has good taste). He had a blast as we were chasing the cows out of the barn so we could run the bobcat in to scoop it out. The day after we spread it their friends were in the backyard & one of them said "what is that bad smell". Well MY BOYS said that's cowpoop it makes the pumpkins big...lol.....Paul

Training them is easy Jeff, It's cleaning the crap off their fur that's the hard part....

My daughter only gets to visit every couple of weeks she is the best pumpkin helper I have ever had. (except for my girlfriend)... I have been trying to teach her that soil fertility is directly linked to the orgaanic equiliberium...
I am pretty shure I didn't spell that right.I wil ask her in two weeks :(

A nasty truck contest.....now there is a great idea! My 75
Chevy Heavy half-ton is parked at my neighbors horse barn.
He fills it up nearly every week and brings it over for me to unload. Even though its original color was green, its new shade of "green" is something to behold. The truck bed is corroding so bad that I expect to fall through any day now!
