It is. James was my grandfather. AKA 'Poppy'. Aunt Annie it is said grew marijuana for the government. I wouldn't doubt it since she was one heck of a lady to know. Made the best biscuits in the world. She was one who would rather show you a shot gun as back down from you. Poppy was just like her. Rotten to the core. Everyone loved them so much. Poppy lived with us when I was a baby. He would buy the seeds from Burpee Seed co. that would grow giant vegetables but wouldn't tell our neighbor that. He would tell him they were regular seeds. When they would grow huge, Pop would just act as though he was the master gardener. Never told him the truth. Told him it was his tobacco juice that made them grow...
