Ride em cowboy

Saying for the Day: All ponies are not friendly or even fun.

Another picture from my childhood. This is me on the meanest pony this side of Texas. I was so scared when this picture was taken. My dad liked the picture so much he had it hand colored. You might think I was lucky to have a pony but I saw it as a curse. The dang thing even dumped me in the creek. Ah the memories of childhood.
That's my dad's dog Pard in the background.

The Bishop was in church at Last Lutheran this morning without a wife. Pastor Marvel had a great sermon on the God who loves us all the time not just at our best. Some of the ladies went right to Nancy’s from church and the gossip on the Bishop and his wife started new. That wife better show up pretty soon.
The Pigeon Falls hermit is still hiding away. He hasn’t come to town once. He hasn’t entered a single Pigeon Falls store. The only thing connecting him to the world is his telephone. The story in town is that he is in witness protection . He is supposed to be hiding from the mob.
The White Rabbit showed up this afternoon and was seen by Joe who services the steam locomotives. He was shoveling coal when he saw the rabbit just down the tracks. It waved, winked, and hoped away. He said it was huge but it didn’t look dangerous. In fact in that pink sweater it looked kind of cute.
There has been so much secrecy with the town council that Nancy says people are talking about invoking the open meetings act. Of course , first, they have to prove there was a meeting . That may not be easy. This is a small town and people often get together for coffee . If no business is conducted is that a meeting ? If it keeps going the lawyers will have to sort it out.

Went and saw my grandaughter take her first Communion today. It seemed like only yesterday I baptized her. Had a good ride home. Well I need a breathing treatment.
