I am not licensed for okra. In fact, no one in my family has ever had an okra permit though my mother did use the underground once or twice but in the current climate we need to be careful to avoid subtrefuge. I think I'll leave those little green devils wherever they are for someone to spray paint and sell to the touristas. I'm definately okra-challenged! :reyes

Besides, I would never go camping with okra-heads. I'm too conservative.

Jana;
You could put on an okra workshop at Fountainhead State Park this fall. Its a beautiful place and you wouldn't have far to go.:)
Rick and Susan C could be excused

Good idea Nick
But remember, Jana likes to eat okra. Her idea of a workshop will be boiling the stuff and putting butter on it.
Rick, I didn't know we had ''sides.''
Even though I started all of this (because I think okra is an interesting plant) I'm definitely on the fence.

Okra (again?!)
Okra (hibiscus esculentus), tall, tropical plant having edible mucilaginous green pods. Native to West Africa, where it is known as nkruma. In southern portions of the United States it is eaten and sometime elevated to cult-like status, while in the north it is generally reviled and used as the source of endless jokes and contumely. In Canada, the larger pods are sometimes frozen and used as tent stakes or as wheel chocks for small travel trailers.

Never fear, I do not, and I repeat, DO NOT eat dried okra. it's to stringy. Now I might be able to find Fountainhead. I think my map search goes that far.
really, cult-like status, WOW where do they meet?
