Where Stoppin' Starts

Good Mornin'

Well, cloudy most a the day, but them showers must a landed sommer else. All in all, though, can't complain; did make some fair progress on the boys run and with the cloud cover temps were lower and that's a blessin' for this old sod.

This run is shapin' up pretty fair, but I have hit a glitch or two. The post I was gone a pull off, stretch the north end, well, turns out it weren't near as healthy as it first appeared; the in ground part crumbled to half size and turned, soon as I put some pull on the stretcher and the 100 foot of horse fence, turned out to be some shy of a full 100. Big business; don't figure it's a mystery, them knowin', a fella like me ain't likely ta haul that role 100 miles back to the store and complain 'bout that missin' six feet! And, spread that over 100 thousand roles a year, that be some real change; fella'd be a fool, turn down that kinda dough, or not?

Kinda reminds me of some small towns, where the insults just keep goin' round and round; your grandfather did my grandfather and now I'm gonna get you. Nobody ever stop and ask themself, "Is it worth it?". Social climate ends up so cold and strange, nobody really wanta live there anymore. Make matters worse, generally, those kinda places, nobody's doin' very well, everybody lickin' their wounds and plottin' their revenge, folks don't wanta get together and figure how things might improve, so nobody's got the dough ta move.

So, I guess it don't matter; big business or small town, we cut corners and ends up the branch we were sittin' on. And, there's my silver linin': a) there but the grace... And, b) if it's ever gonna stop, it'll have to start somewhere. Lord, let it be here!

Have a Great Day!

Best,

Jeune
