NEW BEGINNINGS TODAY...........................

My grandchildren will begin a new school year as well as so many others today. The summer is gone and Fall will be on it's way soon. The hot dry cracked earth will be saturated with the coming rains.

The Car Wash Fiasco...............Have you ever gotten stuck in a car wash?

My grandson and I decided to stop by the car wash on our way to get some fast food yesterday. It's about 11:30 a.m. on a busy Saturday morning and I told my grandson it would probably take about 6 or 8 mins. to drive through the wash and he bet me that it would take a little longer than that; say 10...

The old cowboy in church..............Food for Thought

One Sunday morning, an old cowboy entered a church just before services were to begin. Although the old man and his clothes were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt, and boots that were very worn and ragged. In his hand he carried a worn-out old hat and an equally worn-out Bible. The... Sign in to see full entry.

I am Officially a Writer.................They are going to publish my

story of the Water Well Man in the National Ground Water Association Magazine. I am so excited. But as I was thinking about this being the "first article to be published", it really isn't.

THE WATER WELL MAN........................It's 6:00 a.m. on a Sunday

morning. The phone is ringing and I slowly come awake to its unwelcome interruption to my sleep. Who could be calling at this time of morning? It always gives me an uneasy feeling that something has happened to one of our daughters or anyone else in our family when we get calls early in the morning... Sign in to see full entry.
