I haven't commented but I've been catching up with you. I finally realized that you write in the morning and I read in the afternoon so your blog didn't pop up in Blogger so now I have a list of bloggers I want to read "daily" for sure and you're on it! LOL!<br />Did you see where we got a blizzard on Christmas night? Here in AR! It was my Christmas wish and a Christmas miracle all in one!<br />When did they start naming Winter storms? Is that the first one? I think it's cool since now you can keep the big ones straight without having to remember the year.<br />Good to get back on track with you again..I missed you guys!

I was astonished as to how far they had placed it away from the house. My brother in law remarked about how the side walk went almost all the way to it except it ended at the front door of a chicken house. They had lain planks off the sidewalk of it to go to the outhouse. I thought they must have been rich as the two parts of the outhouse base were all made out of concret, hand troweled to perfection. Out house had been burned down during a grass fire. L.
