Here is a picture of one sunflower plant we had growing by our pole beans this year. Had over twenty flowers on it. Kind of out did itself I would say, but it sure was something to look at through out the summer. Lady here in town gave me some seeds in the spring and just had to put one or two in the ground. Thank her for that. Had more growing but they over powered the beans so had to take a few out. Thought I would share. Click On Picture To Enlarge.

Here is a picture of some Phlox that grows by our front deck. Old Grindstone from our farm sets in behind them. Just couldn’t let it go when we sold the farms years ago. Click On Picture To Enlarge.
Red Phlox Kind Of Rare In Color
Hi Folks, well Saturday at the Fall Fair in Magnetawan went well and got to say we sure had a good time. The picture below is of The Craigs, Country Western Band. Gotta’ say they sure put on a good show for the folks that came. They also brought back a lot of fine memories for me with their songs, as years ago where I was raised, we used to have different groups drop by for a barn dance on Saturday nights. Met some pretty famous folks from them events. Like Kitty Wells, Hank Snow, Hank Locklin, well just to many to name. Makes me sad to think they are all but gone now. But artists like the Craigs will never let them leave us, as they keep bringing their music into the hearts of folks today. I guess that is why I like writing so much, as I might not have a voice to carry the message through songs, but I do pretty well with story tellin’ and a pen. The book signing and story tellin’ went well too. Gives me great pleasure to get up there and watch the faces of folks as I read some stories of days from the past. I would also like to thank the band for introducing me when it came time for me to do my part, along with letting me use their microphone. Great Bunch Of Fellows. So……….guess that is it for now. Just wanted to take a minute and let you in on how it went and to say: “Thanks For Droppin’ By! Meant A Lot To My Wife And I.” Click On Pictures To Enlarge
