We
didn't get much snow in the latest snowstorm, but it did snow off and
on for those few days. I saw a newsclip on TV that showed somebody's
hummingbird feeder covered in snow with the hummers zipping around in
the falling snow, feeding as usual. It didn't seem to bother them
much, and I know the weather didn't seem to bother them around mine
either, they increased in number almost every day. I had at least ten
or twelve humming all over the place during the snow and rain.
It
was a good day at the Bradleyville Walk/Run last Saturday, even
though the temperatures were low. It didn't seem that cold to me but
I don't know if it was because the wind wasn't blowing, because I had
4 layers of shirts on, or because I decided at the last moment to
walk the mile instead of just watching. Maybe all that had something
to do with the reason I broke into a sweat. Going up that last hill
on the mile walk is a killer. I don't walk much because I am missing
some of the cartilage in one of my knees and the tendons are kind of
weak also, but decided I could walk that far. I did, and I think it
would make me feel better if I did that every day. Plus it might make
me lose some weight, which I need to do very much.
I
won't try to remember and list all the winners of the walk/run here
because I would probably forget someone and I am sure they are
probably listed elsewhere in the paper. There was a nice crowd there
in spite of the cold damp weather.
Jeff
and Cindy Marsh spent last week in Louisiana while Jeff was taking
some workshops in Shreveport, and Cindy posted pictures on facebook
of Jeff standing under a sign that said Duck Commander and under
that it said Buck Commander. I am one of the few people in the world
that has never watched Duck Dynasty, so I am not sure what I was
looking at, but Cindy and Jeff said they had a good time.
Scott
Lawson will be graduating from tech school in Wichita Falls this week
and traveling to Whiteman AFB in Missouri for a couple of months. He
will be able to come home on the weekends now so we are all excited
about that. Garrett will love having Daddy home with him and Julie
will love being able to see Scott more even though she is still in
the hospital.
