THE CORN CRIB

corncrib

 

   Have you ever played in a corncrib?  If not, you can't imagine the fun of climbing over cobs and ears of corn.  To a child, all that golden dried corn looked like gold wrapped in cream-colored paper.

   Shelling it can be fun but knuckle hurting sometimes.  Hitting the edge of the filled ear of yellow nuggets on the side of a log in the wall would get a place started to begin the shelling.  Soon the bucket would be full to the top with lovely gold.  This would feed the chickens and other fowl.

   The hogs, sheep and horses would get the whole ears and eat the corn from the cob without it having to be shelled.
