Free Ride

Years ago, when our children were little, Kevin carved this sign for the Oak Meadow Park in our town. He thought it would be good for the children to grow up having some civic pride. As a bonus, the Bill Mason, Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad gave us a lifetime pass. Kevin said, "Well Dear, no matter how bad things get we can always ride the Railroad and have a go around on the Carousel." We go often and usually pay for our tickets, to help support the rides, but I always remember those words and smile.

Advantageous

When I came back to the shop from running an errand today, my son was talking about the days before cell phones and the many advantages that cell phones have now.  He said, "when you wanted to call a girl, you had to get the school directory out and look up her number, then you called and had to ask if Brenda or who ever was there and could you please speak to her. A Mother or Brother or worst, a Father would call Brenda, or whoever to the telephone." This conversation was going on and on as I walked by and into the house. I could still hear the guys laughing out in the shop, so I picked up my cell phone and placed a call to the story teller, who answered immediately. I said, "Hi, this is another great advantage of cell phone technology, Get To Work!" He laughed as he relayed the story to the other guys. 

Drinking Problem

                                     Not the smartest kitty in the litter.

What Ever It Takes

Don't you just love people who will do anything to make a child happy? Happy Birthday to Joshua. We are glad you had such a Happy Day. More fun to come. 

Just Around the Corner

                     It's been there all along. Just watch for the sign and follow the arrows.

Oh The Breeze

So this morning on the way to work, Marla the Wonder dog was enjoying the free and easy feeling one gets when they hang their head out of the window of their Dad's pickup truck. It was all good until she stepped on the electric window control and got her head stuck. Window locks are a good thing to employ when your dog is so inclined, depending of course, if you have them. Marla was fine as her dad was quick on the draw to lower and lock her window.
