Whole Wheat Radio

I have stumbled across something new, well, I did not actually stumble - it came with a recommendation from a southern friend of mine.

Give it a whirl, I think you will enjoy it.

Survivor - Heros vs Villains

Starting February 11th, 2010 - a new survivor - Heros vs Villains.

The cattle ranchers are back - Colby and JT - guess which team I'm rustling up for?

Facebook

I am (giggle, giggle) trying to learn Facebook. I trust Facebook is like a mini mini blog - lil bit of moments that people feel they should post and they gather up a flock that feels they need to read. Too funny, I joined - waiting for my flock to flock on in!

Them birds of a feather never knew they would be gatherin' together this way.

My Cow Family

There has been a lot of chatter about cows recently and I remembered a nice christmas card I received from k47 back in December 2005. 2005 we had just moved to the mountain side and I was not quite acquainted with the cow system as I am today.

Geez, I tell ya - if all the cows I see looked like the one on the christmas card, I'd be the happiest cow chaser in North America!

This is the front of the christmas card. The photo does not give credit as it should (it is the photographer). There are sparkles and udders - it truly looks like a happy cow skipping over the lake.



This is the inside of the card. It has to be a female cow as the mouth opens wide and below the eyes are dangling christmas lights! k47 has a very good imagination.

No offensive to k47 but the first cow I see in May, I shall name it k47 and by no means will it look as attractive as the cow in the picture.

I hope you all had a mooey christmas and a very happy moo year.

Thanks k47.

John Prine Family

I cannot believe I did not post this photo last October, but I cannot find it. I am posting/or reposting today. I found it in my picture file and checked here; but I cannot find the photo.

If you look closely you will see my ticket when I went to see John Prine in Vancouver. Next to that is a magnet...I don't need a radio...I've got a John Prine song playing my head all the time!!! (from Crusher). Next is the John Prine black and white label (also from Crusher), and then a christmas card from k47 complete with a John Prine black and white scent cut out from Florida John. The John Prine cd's in the background complete the photograph Y

Prine - The Ryman - Nashville

Like 76 Trombones led the big parade

76 more days until John Prine plays The Ryman - Nashville. The venue, must be spectacular!

I pray to the gods of lotto - please pick my numbers!

As far as I know, Charlene and Rumbleshorts will be in attendance. Ode to Prine!

Yesterday, Noisemaker and I took a road trip (near a two hour drive) up to shop at the Walmart. I am not one to shop but Noisemaker is. Geez, he can go down every aisle, look and gaze at every product except for feminine hygienic products. It near drives me to drink. However, we plod along and we purchase lots of goodies that we cannot buy at our local vendor. There were good sales at Walmart and I was able to utilize quite a few of my coupons. I like that.

Something else, I truly love is parcels. I receive mega parcels; mostly from my Prine friends. The past two weeks my local post office has been overwhelmed with my parcels. We stopped yesterday to pick them up and the clerk says to me...there is no one like you - you receive so many parcels. I replied, and I love every one of them! And, I do. Smucksville, it is dilly delight.

To mention some of the items I receive - well, first off - I could never get them on the mountain side. Stacking trays, lotions, a John Prine Pen, a blue and white touque, cds, magazines, crossword puzzle books, lots of nice things - lots of Prine treasures. Truly, it is dilly delight. When I get the parcels, be it in the mailbox or in person - well, sometimes I just have to yell on out. Yay and Yippeelicious!

I received the cd The List - Rosanne Cash. Lordy, I am such an odd ding - I have it in my head - singing This List, This List (from the song sung by Faith Hill - This Kiss, This Kiss). I sing:
This List
This List
Rosanne
It's incredible

It is an incredible life I lead. So much has changed over the near five years I have been on the mountain side. Some good and some well, you have to learn from ~ and learn I do.

EcoFan

The mountain side has gone high green tech!

Here is the EcoFan - it is a smucksville dilly. It runs on the heat generated by the woodstove and circulates the air.

Marty Stuart

I am quite stuck today on Marty Stuart - it was all that yappin' on the shrine.

http://www.jpshrine.org/

I could be quite star struck by the pure good looking status of Travis Tritt and Marty Stuart. Smucksville!

Some years ago, I burned a cd with Marty Stuart singing Tempted. I had a review whereby Bruce Springsteen states something like best dancin' song I have heard in a long time. No question - Tempted - is a dancin' song.

I rightly or lefty do not know Travis Tritt. I know Tempted, yep - I listening to it right now as I type. I have this vision of a dance hall, ...it is so hard to resist the temptation to bust loooooose and dance.

However, I have much going on at the moment. Noisemaker is wondering I have not posted the picture of the ecofan to my brother.

Tempted is blasting in my ears and soon, I know we will go to KISS - there is one song I love by them...loving you baby or something like that. It is a great dance tune. On the same cd I have David Allen Coe. Yep - I can get from John Prine to David Allen Coe, Kiss, and land up with Tempted.

Pure Amazement!

Birthday Greetings

Happy 55th Birthday, Slade

I can hear the music playing way up here on the mountain side.

Love you always.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Cheers for 2010 - please do not visit the province of British Columbia as Vancouver is host to the 2010 Olympics. It is only my opinion, but I do not believe it will be a secure place to be visiting in 2010.

When I was in Vancouver for John Prine, I struck up a conversation with a teacher - a teacher to that of homeleeleelala security. He said to me, stay at home. I will heed.

May you all have resolutions you can keep and may the gates of our friendship never swing to that of rust.

I have made only one resolution and it is not up to me to keep. I hope for eight (8) followers. teehee!

Best New Years' Wishes, Everyone
