Hunting... Pure country folks... Simple lifestyle... hunting... coondogs... fishing... Ozarks (even though I currently live in CO)... hunting... farming... sitting on the front porch visiting... bucking hay, then going down to the river for a swim... hunting...

Read "where the Red Fern Grows" and Summer of the Monkeys" by Wilson Rawls. Although I am only 31 I grew up not a lot different than these books portray. That culture is my culture. I am proud of it.

*Whew* Thanks for the explanation. It makes sense.

Here I was guessing you named your son after "Jay Berry Gourmet Pizza" (Issaquah, WA).

Makes sense. Greenberry is a name used frequently by my ancestors, but I've never heard of Jayberry.
