tyc415 Here in south Texas we don't really have to prepare our yards for winter. Only time we really have to do any preparing is if a tropical storm or hurricane is headed out way.

tyc415 Oh no, so sorry you had to pick your watermelons before time but so glad you were able to keep a couple of them. If you know anyone who has horses maybe they would want the others? I know horses love watermelon at least the horses I have known do.
