Text of the page (random words):
sure enough there was the snake they called me in to catch it and carry it out of the house how did it get into the house there is a bit of a space under the screen door to the porch which he had to have come through and the door from the porch to the main part of the house was open since january we darryl ramiah and i had been preparing for a 40 mile long backpacking trip in the great smokey mountains national park we were to be joined by darryl s brother in law steve and his son joshua on june 22nd we drove to cosby tennessee where we met steve and josh they live in north carolina we began our trip the following morning on the baxter creek trail a 6 2 mile hike with a climb of 4200 feet up to a campground at the top of mt sterling the next day was an 11 mile hike which turned out to be our hardest day climbing had been hard but nothing like much of that 11 miles that was downhill we were all suffering in one way or another the 3rd day was about 8 miles approximately half uphill and half downhill i was experiencing joint pain in my right knee steve was having some issues with energy levels etc we decided to cut our hike short and come on out on the 4th day only a 5 mile gentle downhill trek so we ended up with a shorter hike only 30 miles instead of 40 but all in all we were pretty happy with our accomplishment some of the others had done some backpacking but this was a first for me i m ready to go again darryl ramiah joshua steve and me on the trail after returning home on friday the 27th connie and i drove to sullivan illinois on sunday the 29th for the pifer cousin reunion we returned home the next day july 19th was our 50th anniversary our daughter and son in law from indiana our son and his daughter from illinois and our granddaughter and her son from wisconsin were all able to be here for that weekend we received quite a few nice cards and we are into the next 50 years now in mid august we went to the fair not just any fair but according to connie the best fair that fair was the darke county fair in greenville ohio connie has often commented when we attended other fairs including the state fairs of illinois and kentucky they were not as good as the darke county fair she attended a number of times in her teenage years connie s sister and her husband who live at greenville attend each year and we began planning after our visit to their home in 2013 to go up for the 2014 fair we drove up to their home on the 17th and went to the fair on the 18th we selected that day partly because it was senior citizen s day and admission was free and the fair did seem to live up to connie s expectations on our return home we stopped by and spent a night and most of a day with friends we have known for over 50 years they live at lancaster kentucky about 100 miles from us we had a very good visit early in september i built a new woodshed the current woodshed will hold only enough wood for one season and i really wanted one a bit larger but the biggest reason for building one was to have my wood storage closer to the house and in a location that would ease putting wood into it the current shed is down a bit of an incline in the backyard i am unable to drive down to it so all of the wood has to be unloaded from the truck and carried down to the woodshed to be stacked even with a hand truck or wheelbarrow this creates added work and then when we begin using the wood in the heating season it all has to be carried up the incline to the house connie wasn t totally pleased with my choice of location for the new woodshed but it answers all of the problems with the old one it was placed at the front of our parking area in front of the house it is close to the house i can back right up to it to unload and stack wood and it is large enough to hold 3 years or more worth of wood if it is ever filled later in the month of september we receive word of two deaths in the families connie s uncle who lived at arcanum ohio and one of my cousins living in sullivan illinois died the same day her uncle s funeral was held on september 22nd so we drove up on the 21st and spent a couple of nights at her sister s home on the 23rd we drove over to anderson indiana and spent that night with our daughter and son in law we drove on over to sullivan on the 24th went to my cousin s visitation that evening and the funeral the next morning the 25th following the service we drove on back home in mid october some friends from arizona were spending some time near the kentucky dam on kentucky lake we drove over and spent a couple of days with them and had a good visit on october 18th we discovered that our 20 year old freezer had quit working the food was beginning to thaw some especially near the top and around the sides i drove over to glasgow kentucky to the lowe s store that evening and purchase a new freezer thankfully no food was lost thanksgiving weekend we drove up to our daughter s home once again her two grown children from wisconsin were there along with our granddaughter s little son and her boy friend our oldest son and his daughter came from illinois we took the two oldest grandchildren from here on the farm with us a very good time was had by all and that as i said is the condensed version of what happened with us in 2014 read more posted by garry at 7 09 pm 4 comments and the wall came down wednesday november 6 2013 connie and i moved here to kentucky in the spring of 2004 our first priority was to complete the house that had been started by the previous owner before darryl bought the farm darryl had told us that the house was for us all we had to do was finish it the intent of the one who started the house was for the kitchen dining area and living room to all be one long open room because at the time it appeared that our oldest son and his young daughter would be living with us we put a wall across one end of this long room to provide a small bedroom for the granddaughter as it turned out our son and his daughter did not stay here with us but moved back to illinois the small room was turned into a computer room for several years the picture above shows the wall being put in back in 2004 the original window in the end of the room is shown this photo was taken a few years ago showing the wall in place and with a partial view of the little room being used as our computer room upon remodeling the spare room last year we moved our computers into that room and the little room had some bookcases and a futon in it but was used very little prior to a visit last spring by some friends from texas connie told me that i needed to remove the wall that we had put in back in 2004 i wasn t open to that idea at all i knew that would create several difficulties the walls were paneled with different paneling the ceilings were different and the floors had the hardwood put down differently plus there would be the repairs needed to walls ceiling and floor where the wall had been but over several weeks or months i began to visualize how this could be done by leaving a short stub wall on either end and letting the wall extend down form the ceiling to the height of the doorway the area could be opened up there would still be two rooms but with a large cased opening it would seem almost like one large room so the wall came down the floor was joined by filling in the void with some leftover scraps of flooring and a threshold put over that the walls and ceiling area were finished out and trimmed while at the project the old window which was becoming difficult to open and close was removed and replaced with a new one which was not as tall all of this was a little late for the visit of our friends from texas but for the times when we have quite a number here to fellowship it really seems to extend our space plus we are ready for the next visit from our texas friends this picture and the ones to follow show what the little room now looks like with the wall taken out the last photo above was taken from in front of the kitchen sink showing the entire room approximately 30 feet long read more posted by garry at 6 56 pm 1 comments labels remodel of little room it is chigger season again tuesday june 25 2013 i love summer for the most part i deal with the heat better than with cold but with summer comes the pesky bugs especially the chiggers they seem to like the taste of me for some reason i ve been using powdered sulfur as a natural repellant and i know it helps but i m still getting more chigger bites than i care to count i found a poem that tells it like it is i was given permission by the author jerry schieicher to share it you can find this and other poems written by jerry on his page of the cowboy poetry web site the chigger blues i ain t a feered of snakes ner spiders and ticks don t make me twitch i kin roll around nekked in a poison ivy patch and never even itch i ain t skeered much of lions ner tigers or other carnivores much bigger the only critter that gives me the chills is the cold hearted chigger they ain t no bigger than a dot most folks have never seen one you don t even know they bit ya till they ve already et and gone and drilled yer skin with a bitin end that s part needle and part digger pound fer pound the baddest bug around has got to be the chigger they crawl inside yer pants and socks and creep into yer underdrawers and commence to have a feast while yer doin yer gardenin chores it seems their spit dissolves yer hide which they then consume with vigor fer an arachnid version of the vampire i nominate the chigger i still got scars up n down my carcass that i reckon i ll bear fer years from clawin at the welts they ve left from my toes up past my rear the itch they leave behind lasts much longer than you d figger if you want to drive a man insane jist feed him to a chigger i ve tried that nail polish myth and doused myself with lotion but nuthin seem to keep em off there ain t no magic potion and steppin out into my own back yard only seems to trigger a fresh attack by my worst nightmare the man eatin chigger most folks love the summer season and fer most it s all good news of flower gardens fresh mowed lawns and backyard bar be cues but if you invite me to yer outdoor games i ll respectfully refuse cause you don t want to hear me wailin as i sing the chigger blues 2005 jerry

been impressed by all of the trees that bloom in the spring here on the ridge and in the area cousin mike from canada suggested i post some pictures so here goes the redbud trees are the first trees to bloom out this particular tree is located near darryl s pond before the redbud trees finish blooming the dogwood trees burst into full bloom this tree is near our mailbox here is a close up view of a redbud tree and here is a close up of a dogwood in bloom before the dogwood trees are finished blooming one can begin to see blooms way up high in the tulip poplar trees this photo is zoomed in quite a bit and you have to look close to see the yellow blooms in this photo i have zoomed in a bit more and here is an even closer look at the bloom of a tulip poplar tree another tree that blooms at about the same time is the royal empress tree also known as the royal princess and royal paulownia this tree is on a neighboring property the numerous locust trees are also in bloom at the same time as you can see the trees are loaded with blooms in this final close up photo you can see the beautiful locust blooms read more posted by garry at 3 01 pm 1 comments labels flowering dogwoods locust trees redbuds royal empress tree royal paulownia tree royal princess tree do you use paypal monday february 25 2013 a number of years ago when i first started buying a few item off of ebay i opened a paypal account i ve never had any problems that is until recently maybe you are a lot like me i have assumed that a seller or vendor is on the up and up if they have established an account with paypal that allows me to pay for my purchase that way rather than giving out my credit card number but that is not always the case let me tell you my little story i discovered that the chainsaw bar on my chainsaw was needing to be replaced as i often do i shopped around online to find the best price the company had a nice website and offered to let me pay for the bar with my paypal account i immediately received a receipt from paypal that the money had been sent to the vendor i thought it a bit unusual but i did not receive a confirmation from the vendor i kept expecting my new bar to arrive after two weeks had gone by and i still hadn t heard anything i sent an email to the vendor which was not answered i attempted to call but got a recorded message that the number was disconnected or no longer in service i logged onto my paypal account and went to the resolution center and gave them this information they encourage the buyer and seller to work things out they were to send a message to the seller several days went by i did further checking online to see if i could find out anything else what i found was very interesting i located a second phone number which when called resulted in the same message number disconnected or no longer in service i came across a website that told me that this company was closed i went to the bbb s website and found that they had rated this particular company on a rating of a to f an f this they said was primarily due to unresolved complaints i updated the message board at the paypal resolution center and then filed a claim the automated email indicated that they would investigate possibly ask more questions and would make a determination within 10 days the amazing thing to me was that in only about an hour i received an email from paypal stating they had investigated my claim and that they had issued a full refund to my credit card i m impressed with their quick resolution and with the refund but the need is there to check out who you are buying from don t assume that just because they accept paypal they are someone you want to attempt to do business with read more posted by garry at 5 00 pm 1 comments labels paypal a story of a coffee grinder thursday january 10 2013 some of you reading this may remember when nearly every grocery store had a commercial coffee grinder usually located within the coffee aisle a lot of the coffee sold was whole bean and you were able to open the package pour the coffee beans into the grinder select the grind you wanted and grind the beans right there in the store there are some few stores that may still have such units but not many in the late 1960 s a family friend living in the champaign illinois area located quite a number of these coffee grinders sitting
