must be miles of rock work that is amazing.. built in 1939 as a WPA project.. we may see more of these if times get harder and folks become unemployed

great way to cap off an evening of great food and fellowship...

Pawnee Bath House looking west and up the hill ...

We went out to the bathhouse.. have heard about it but not been to it..

We saw a train... have not been this close in years...

We went to dinner last night with our dear friends Craig and Missy...

We went to Branson last year with them, and they went this year without us, but they brought us back this beautiful sign to put in our 'park' east of our home... and they wrote a nice poem to go with it.. but don't have it with me to post here now...

By the way, day before yesterday was Missy's 40th birthday... you know, It's amazing that she is 40.. wow! She doesn't look a day over 19...... and still acts that way too.. . HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISSY belated.. but still we wish you the best and many many more.....

Reese and his John Deere

MK sent this note along today.. hehe... hits nail on the head... I think!

'Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!

I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.

When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys

They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!

He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink

He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!

' On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi'
He screamed at the pairs!

They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!

So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!
