Tomorrow is the anniversary of Dad's birthday

"July is the best (most enjoyable) month of the year," my dad would say.  He would call attention to the fact that July was the best month for watermelons, cantaloupes and other fruits, plus fresh vegetables.

Dad had a special reason for praising July.  He was born July 16, 1881,  in a log cabin in Claiborne parish.
When he was born he already had a full brother, two half brothers, and two half sisters.
