She Said He Said

  “You look reptilian with that green eye shadow” Kay laughed, then she pushed me down the steps to the gym and I twisted my ankle. Both hurt but both were accidents. The comment about my make up was blurted out as an honest opinion and the push was just a way of speeding me

Texas Ski Resort

  Bearfire Resorts scheduled to open in the fall of 2009 has inspired us to plan a similar resort here. Our plans encompass a slightly smaller scale than the 527 acres in Fort Worth, Texas. The 22 story mountain of steel and concrete, because it is a structure, will be ranked as one of the

Bacon Bits

Pigs are smarter and cleaner than dogs, so the article said. Some are more affectionate than cats and make great house pets. Miss Piggy is an exception to that rule. Our pig is not a hugger but she does like to be read to. I  read an article to her  about the benefits to being

Gang Related

In The Words Of The Veggie Tales

Larry the Cucmber says: Everybody’s got a water buffalo Yours is fast but mine is slow O where do you get them I don’t know But everybody’s got a water buffalo Not everybody has a water buffalo, Archie says,  but We did have a water beefalo……. My beefalo jumped into the pool The chlorine made

Hungry Hungry Hippo

  I pictured every conceivable beast splashing around in the water. The article in Texas Monthly about the alligator pit located not far from us was fresh in my mind, but hadn’t  I  just seen them safely contained behind a concrete wall at the Zoo? A local resident had captured an alligator recently. I saw his
