Bruce & Patsy Wilson - Out sharing summer's bounty 2018-07-31 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Bruce and Patsy Wilson were out last night delivering huge Heirloom tomatoes and 20 pound watermelons to gardening challenged friends. The watermelons were perfectly ripe and sliced open with just a suggestion from a knife blade and were as sweet as honey. The Heirloom tomatoes, almost uniform in size provide platter size tomato steaks and barely need any seasoning to enjoy. Raising watermelons is a family tradition. Bruce Wilson's father Ivy Wilson was a legendary watermelon man, both in Russell County and later in Adair, back when most Kentuckians thought good watermelons could only come from Seymour and Vincennes, Indiana. There were times, back in the days when thieves were more practical and properly prized watermelons that growers had to go to extreme lengths to keep melon crime down. Now, with dumb opportunistic, dummy-see-dummy-do crime in vogue, watermelon stealing is no longer a big deal for growers, Bruce said. But for food-for-heath people, those with so much conscience they empathize with rocks, watermelon is prized, for many reasons - most lately, they say that it's known as Viagra-off-the-Vine - good for the libido. Before the pair could relate a chapter in their wonderful biographies, they were off, like Santa Claus for their two final deliveries. - EW. Paired Photo.

This watermelon was so ripe that when the knife touched it, it almost opened itself with no further slicing -- and the taste was perfectly sweet! It came from Bruce Wilson's organic watermelon patch in Adair County. - EW/LW Paired Photo.
