TIME IS GETTING CLOSER

Tomorrow morning at this time I hope to be well down the road on my way to Texas with my granddaughter Delaney with the car dvd player spewing the words of Dr Suess's Cat in the Hat movie. I bet I will hear that about 50 times before we arrive at our destination. I hope to slip in a audio book from time to time. They make to time go faster with a good mystery. I usually take six audio books with me and am usually on the last one about half way home.
Looking forward to seeing everyone and that will happen on Wednesday afternoon.
Hope to have stories of things that we will do next time that I write.

LOVE SONGS - HAVE THEY CHANGED?

Once upon a time, love songs were just that. Songs that spoke of love relating to a boy and girl or man and a woman. It told of tender feelings and futures togeather.
Have they changed now and how does it affect our society. I think they have changed in the respect of telling our young people that it's OK to have sex just because someone you just met says "I love you" with references to going to bed, performing sex acts and most of all these garbage rap singers demoralizing the young girls of this country. Modern day love songs are not that. They are crap. The only true love songs today are Country songs. Listen to them, they will touch your heart.

GOING TO TEXAS

It's vacation time again and since my daughter Lorri was here last year it's my turn to go there. She has moved from Shiner to Killeen Texas. Killeen is a little over 200 miles closer than Shiner and a lot larger and is near Fort Hood.
While I am there I hope to see some new things, one being the Houston Space Center. I hear it is really a great place especially for the kids. You have to understand that Shiner had about 2000 people and they sucked the sidewalks in at 7.00 while Killeen is 50 times larger and a lot more to do. Shiner did not have a Diary Queen or McDonalds or a movie theatre. Everything was either 20 or 60 miles away depending on what you wanted to do.
I am looking forward to getting on the road getting there and seeing new things and of course the big thing is seeing my daughter and grand kids.
Talk to ya'll later.

JON AND KATE

Has this circus come to an end. I haven't seen figures yet on the number of viewers that watched Jon and Kate last night but I bet it was huge. I really don't care if they separate, divorce or whatever, but I watched it out of curiosity. We all know that the show will continue with Jon living elsewhere and Kate staying with the kids. At $75000.00 an episode I would find some way to keep the show going. I wonder if that figure is for re-runs too. With all the fuss that the kids will be going thru over the years I only hope that they will become normal fun loving children. I get the impression that Jon is a little slow and has a hard time making decisions on his own. And for Kate, maybe if she kept her mouth shut once in a while and not be such a bitch, they would still be together.
Only time will tell about this rags to riches couple with 8 adorable kids.
God Bless them and help them make the right decision. Also keep the shrinks out of it. If anyone can screw up one's head, they can.

GOOD YARD SALE AT THE CAMPER!

There is always a thrill of excitement when preparing for a yard sale. Will I make money, will it be cool or hot and will it be sunny or cloudy and the big question is will it RAIN. To answer these questions. Yes I did make a little money, it was cool, in the low 70's, cloudy and just a slight sprinkle in the afternoon around closing time. One of the nice things about the camp wide yard sale is the people you meet. All are looking for that treasure and are willing to share a few words about one thing or another. I'm always glad when someone tells me that they found just what they were looking for and it makes me feel good that I had it.
I did get rid (is that the correct word to use) of quite a few things and now have a little more room in the shed. There will be another one in August and I can't wait to do it again.

EXCITING WEEKEND COMING UP!!!!!!!

We have a exciting weekend coming up at the campground this week and that will be the annual yard sale throughout the campground. There should be over 150 campsites included. You can get just about anything you may want short of booze and women. I will be participating with the rest this Saturday and have a mixture of things to sell from children's cloths to arts and crafts. I always look forward to this weekend because it is not only a chance to sell things but also to meet new and talk to new people. The park is open to the public so you can bet there will be a lot of people there as well as security. I am leaving tomorrow (Friday) to start setting up my tables and will be out bright and early on Saturday putting my sale items out which takes about an hour plus. When all is over and things put away it will be time to sit around a fire and talk about the days happenings and what treasures our group found throughout the day.
Looking forward to a nice weekend.

WHAT CAN BE DONE?

Reading the newspaper, listening to the news on the radio or tv, it's happening and it is not a good thing.
Police car gets into an accident would be good person runs to help policeman but the creep turns the officer (who already has a spinal injure) not to help but to take his gun. Just what kind of people are out there?
Just the other day a police car was responding to a call of shots fired and while en route a car pulls up next to them and opens fire hitting one officer in the knee and the head. This officer did die later and he was only 27 years old and engaged to be married. Again a life of a good person taken by some creep with a gun.
What can be done? Should the laws for such things be stricter so as to put fear of doing an act of violence into these people no matter if young or old. Sentence the young punks who think they own the streets as adults regardless of age. Isn't it always said "an eye for an eye".
When family members are interviewed, how can they honestly say that they forgive the person who killed their loved one. Not possible.
