November 4

I did forget to mention something pertaining to the Palin visit yesterday in Jeff City that probably really shocked some but was only a confirmer for me. Hank Jr. can't sing worth a shit! He sang, or did the words to the National Anthem without music...My lands! He should never do something like that without some music to cover for him. By the way he is in a couple of the pictures, guy with the cowboy hat on and a shirt with the number 58 on it.

We have a pretty full time job now. It takes a daily rout of the leaves just to attempt staying ahead. ("It depends on the tree's species and age, but a mature, healthy Oak tree can have 200,000 leaves.") We have 16 healthy Oak trees right close dropping a portion of that 3,200,000 plus, ground and road covering leaves everyday. We also get the gift of many many leaves blown in from the woods behind us as well as from the neighbors trees. Glenda has a thing about letting them lay as mother nature intended so we'll move them out again today so we can move the next day/night drop out tomorrow.

Moving the leaves is a non-thinking time allowing the worries of our future a much needed rest. Others have a different way to rest their worries I suppose and they may be using it full time. As we're hearing about how many people, that are evidently without a thought, going to bow to the smooth talking teleprompter reading liar and thoughtlessly vote.
