A weekly-ish blog sharing my series of collages about growing up in the South during the 1950s.

SOUTHERN STAPLE
Watermelons were cooled in the creek during swimming or fishing outings and eaten with a favorite utensil or none at all. Watermelon fights usually followed - especially squirting the seeds.
The photo is of a few Smith Cousins - Gus Harris, Joelle Smith, Annelle Roberts and Joyce Smith - all eating watermelon.
