Spooks Galore!

Fall Soccer

Erin and I went to see a great soccer player

last night. She is a star!!

Richland Creek

This is the rock that Erin put on her blog.

Richland Creek is a beautiful area in Newton

County, AR.

The bottom photo was taken several years
ago. I recall the rock was covered with moss
now it looks as if the moss is gone? Wonder
what happened to it?

Cancer is ugly!

Nature Trail

Took my little blue bike to this trail
and rode 8 miles yesterday. It took an
hour. I did not have to get off and push
even ONE time. I am so proud, but I
could never walk up Meek hill, Fleta!

Hay for my Ridge Chicks

I wanted Patsy to see that I am taking

care of the Ridge Chickens. My pen gets

muddy and what I call marred. So I went

to the feed store and bought a bail of straw

to strew around in their pen. They were as

proud a I would be with a new rug in my

home!

The white Bantie is not a Ridge Chick. She is

one of my old ones that I have kept. Siggie

loves her and will eat all her egg because she

thinks the white chick laid it. When we gather

the egg and one had poo on it...I showed Siggie

and she yelled, 'Chickens don't poop on the eggs'.

Decoration Day 1950

Someone shared this photo with me this week.
It was taken first Sunday in June 1950. My
husband's father is the man with the white hat
and hands on his hips. His grandfather is the
one with overalls and hands on his hips. His
great grandmother is sitting on the ground near
her husband's grave with a rag tied on her head.
Larry looks like his grandfather.

Another Sky!

Look up, Look up
What do you see
Hope is there
Waiting for thee!

Happy Birthday, Hillary

Hillary has a birthday today--Oct. 26. I

hope she will be such a great President that

we will get to stay home from work someday

because it is her birthday. I hope she will

remember the working people in our country.

I hope she will remember that she is not

queen...only president. I hope she will do

something about health care for all of us.

I hope the word WAR can move to a back

burner on the government stove!

Watching the Sky

A Friend indeed!

Yesterday on my walk, a friend went along.
It made the 30 minutes just whiz by and I
learned a lot of new stuff. Bats are good
because they eat misquitos. If you catch a
big frog by putting a bucket on top of it...
the entire bucket will jump around your
yard like it is alive. I wanted my friend to
come home with me...but her father said
'supper is ready'.
