The Rural Voice, 1994-12, Page 11I have visited Content, a long way down a twisty narrow road. I have walked its dusty — or muddy pathways, I have been accosted by the multitude of local mongrels, whose bark was always worse than their bite, I have greeted and been greeted by smiling work -worn women carrying huge loads of laundry on their heads, I have passed the irregular garden plots with the exotic dasheen leaves and scrawny corn, I have taken refreshment at the local "rum shop" while joking with local youths who were similarly engaged before they departed to the reef for a morning's fishing. Grenadian greetings still echo in my head — "hello, good momin"' — "mawnin' sir" — " good mornin' Pappy". When I think about the feedlots populated with thousands of cattle and combines that cost over two hundred thousand dollars, when I think of our cities covering millions of acres of the earth with concrete, I also think of Content.0 Merle Gunby is a former farmer and former sales representative for The Rural Voice.
