Thelma, the head nut, meets us at the nut processing room and immediately recognizes our vast untapped potential as nut cleaners. While we sit there picking debris from the moist nuts, she shares her life story with us. We learn that she is famous as the face of Mrs. Myers cleaning products.
Inspired by her mom, Thelma’s daughter started the company then enlisted Thelma as the products “face.” Thelma traveled the country promoting the products as the spokesperson. How cool is that? At ninety years young, she still shows up at our campground’s Friday dances and devotes a huge part of her volunteer time to cleaning pecans. Check out her awesome story by clicking here.
Good times! Loved the nut cleaning video. You two ladies are very entertaining.
Thought about Charlie recently. Read a little blurb about him in the Seaford High
Class of ‘71 Facebook pages, someone even mentioned your travel blog. He’s not
forgotten in his home town, that’s for sure.
Be well, keep on being you!
Oh Marcia – thanks so much for sharing that about Charlie. I am so glad to hear that he is remembered in his hometown. I will and you be well and happy too!
Sunny I didn’t know about Charlie. He was such a fine person and friend to everyone. Sorry for your loss. Happy travels. Jeff Peedin
Thanks, Jeff. Yes he has been gone almost 3 years now and I sure miss him. Happy travels to you too!
Girl you got me stumped this time, actually without words. Can you believe that!!! ;>) Sandy and I laughed at you guys during the entire video. It should be illegal to have that much fun and doing something good for someone. I personally would have been fired after the first 15 minutes and a pound of pecans were missing from the batch. ;>))) Love to crack and clean these things could do it for hours and usually have a tummy ache when I get through. Keep em coming we look forward to all of them. GOD BLESS

I know what you mean. I had to keep an eye on Roxanne, she has a taste for the yummy pecans. We had so much fun we are thinking of going back and doing it again!
