...there was a time every spring when i was growing up when our neighbor would have a horse & plow come in, to prepare his sizable backyard for a large garden...
...i still, to this day, remember looking over the side fence in the warm evening after a long day of hearing "heeya, giddup...come on, now...that's a girl...whoa, now, whoa...okay now,let's giddup" & with the fecund smell of fresh earth & horse manure, there would be ol' charlie, pleased as punch with a big grin on his face, saying "don't that smell give ya a' appetite ???"...
...well, my dear...while that was charlie's way of trying to gross out us kids to get a chuckle, as i recall he & his wife were always generous w/ their abundant harvest, so in essence, knowing what was coming, it did kinda give me an appetite...
..."...quality horse poo"...hey, when i smell the "good stuff", i do have pleasant memories...bwaha !!!...

Mike J - That was what through me, too. Do they use gloves? I wonder.
bgw - And, did it give you an appetite? Nice memories of quality horse poo. :-)
