Other vistors

Jumped ahead with the last biog so needed to catch up, we had Jason, Jaime and Bella by for a visit.
Trying to teach Bella to run with the bike (I think she wanted to make sure Jason had money if they seen the ice cream man before they left)


Then the trip went fine.




Hanging out in the back yard.



And O yes Somore time. Was great to have you guys

Memories of the 4th




As a kid I always remember that the Fourth of July was always a little special. Yes, we still had things to do but we always took time to put out Old Glory; my parents told me that it stood for freedom and for those that gave their lives so that we could enjoy that freedom. I never had anyone close that served in a war but I had some cousins that gave their lives. For them and others that served, I'm grateful. I always enjoyed traditional chuck wagon breakfast into Paris, then usually back to hauling hay. After evening chores we would go watch fireworks. But today as I came home from work it hurt to see that we had the only flag on the block. I hope that you all took time to fly Old Glory and think about what it stands for. HAPPY 4TH OF JULY. Considering that tomorrow is the Fourth, hopefully we'll see more flags

They made me work so hard I had to sneak in some sleep any time I could.




I was a soccer star.
