Lots of laughter this week!

Thanks! I needed that.

I attended my High School Class reunion. They were billing this as our 40th, although it was only our 39th. Since Roscoe holds homecoming every three years, this was as close as we were going to get!

The reunion was hosted by classmate Nancy (Williams) Althof and her husband Daylon, at their home. Gorgeous place.

We have 42 people affiliated with our class. This is a greater number than those of us who walked across the stage to receive diplomas. We had several classmates that were in and out of our class. One preacher's daughter who probably was a classmate six to eight years, another classmate who went to elementary with us, then moved and returned in High School, yet moved prior to graduation. I suppose our motto should be, "Our class takes all!"

Of the 42, 5 are dead. That leaves a balance of 37 and of them, 16 attended the reunion. Sadly, many of the remaining classmates did not even respond.

Simply put, there wasn't enough time and I regret not attending the Friday function. It was good to re-connect.

Rian sent me a text earlier this week. The top ten Country and Western Songs of all time. I have narrowed it down to my favorites of the list.

1) It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chewed my ass all day!

2) My wife ran off with my best friend and I sure miss him!

3) She took my ring and gave me the finger.

and

4) I'm so miserable without you, it's like you're still here!

Pretty funny!

The other morning I was leaving the house early and noticed a neighbor's garage door going up. As I was fixing to pass, a female neighbor emerged, carrying some things to her car. She began to wave as I was passing, and it was about this time she realize she was clad only in T-shirt and unawares!

Luckily I didn't run over a fire hydrant or mail box! Although I was laughing!

I finished the strip tilling on the farm Tuesday afternoon. The remainder of Tuesday and half of Wednesday was spent getting the big plow ready to go home.

Jason and I were going to try to begin applying a final application of Roundup, but the weather was drizzle with an occasional rain shower, so we worked around the farm shop instead. We did get our first cotton stripper started and moved. Depending on the weather, we may get another one out today if we can't spray.

And, of all things for a Thursday I have jury duty! Municipal Court. Yuk! Even worse, 1 pm.

Have a day!

FATHER, thank YOU for YOUR gift of laughter!
