While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!

These claims are probably Non-Indian.
NOTE: The addition of the claim should be $27,994.98. I have no idea if this error was made at the time the information was transcribed or if there was an error in the original amount of $10,000.00. If there was an error in the original calculation, this would have been over paid to someone in the amount of $10,000.00. Webmaster
