some of the best peaches I’ve ate were from Porter Oklahoma and Palisade Colorado
The best peaches I've eaten came from our own orchard about 71 miles south of Oklahoma City.
The ones I watched turn from a blossom to a ripe peach and snagged at perfection, right off the tree.
PS: I found Georgia Peaches delightful, especially their southern drawl.

Love freshly picked peaches.... Palisade Colorado gets my vote.
probably a lot like him tho if you see an advantage in painting them blue …
I painted the tip of tails to mark them , they return back at 8 miles
20mile trip worked better. the burlap bag in the water made sure they never returned second time.
The next day I check and guess what
That blue paint, it washed off.

Got the back field mowed just before the rain got heavy. The lower part of the state is gettin' a whoopin' right now. Looks like it's all going south and north of me. Not a bad thing for me. Gettin' too old to clean up 'nader damage.
A cowboy, who just moved to Montana from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud.
He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn.
When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy,
"You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it.
It would taste better if you bought one at a time."
The cowboy replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers.
One is in Arizona, the other is in Colorado.
When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together.
So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."
The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.
The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way.
He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.
One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs.
All the regulars take notice and fall silent.
When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my
condolences on your loss."
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs.
"Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explains.
"It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."

Made the mistake of laying down. Got up and walked like an old man. I mowed the first third of the field in low gear 'cause ya take less of a beating. It started gettin' really dark, so I put it in bunny gear. Got it done, but man, did I take a pounding. I'd buy some sheep to keep it chewed down, but Roster would say I have ulterior motives.

Backwards here too.
People don't live in one hemisphere or the other, they just have a dominant one that they spend more time in.
