Whew-- that was a hot one

Just out at the well getting ready to water every one, I believe they need it.

.I like to run the tanks over to soften their hooves, and it gives an extra place for the birds and bunnies to drink.
Clouds coming in, goodie.

Clouds going past, oh no!

Should start cooling now.

.

I believe I'll go find a cold one and sit outside now----mikey

No, It was Not Easy!

.
Take it easy Bloodfang, it's just Mikey.

.
It's not every day I get to socialize with the neighbor Ladies!

Sooooo Nice, nobody said it was going to be easy.

. Oh well, this is nice, Sun going down; temp dropping; beautiful scenery
pleasant company (BLOODFANG); and the neighbor Ladies.

.YUP! nobody said "It Would Be Easy", so true-so true.

.LY from The LMA------mike

.

Nobody said it would be easy.

.

.Here is one person that may call me boy.

.Dear Uncle Marion Murphy. The few previous post were from a few years ago during a visit to his place. I must admit he inspired me in several areas of my life.
.
The proof is in the pudding. He may say what he wants to me, as long as he will speak to me.

.
The LMA was inspired, quite a bit from Marion, even though he may not have realized it at the time, everybody who "hears" him is the better for it.

.
Nobody said "It Would Be Easy" needs to be said a great deal more. Be that as it may be "Go For It".

.
Love Y'all---mikey

Devil's Anvil

This is good, and look beer too!

Good to see the the fireplace is OK!

.Hey mike I think boys are stupid. Could you go throw some rocks at them? Love JackieJo.

Hey mike, what did she say?

You Don't want to Know boys, trust me.

.The Devil's Anvil! No wonder JJ's in an off mood.

Think I'm kidding? This is in the shade! (Morning on the LMA!).

.Ths is in the shade, I never knew why everyone came out here at "NOON IN JUNE", let alone July.
.Just so ya know, I had a very hard time posting this. The temperature seems to play havock with the signal out here. I had a very nice story in mind, but, oh well. I will tell ya later.

.One day money, the next day mud.

.Life in the Devil's Anvil,-----------mikey

I just had to steal these pictures

.

Ya know, I just had to. Hi Ladies! Love Ya.


I responded to your blogs. But this just warms my heart because the GIRLS DORM is alive and well!!!!

.

So nice to see so much of the family together.
Ladies- I salute you.

Not drunk yet--working on it---love mikey

Living in the Past

.

My Mom, said to me one day " Mike, no more "Lost Causes", thank you.

The conversation enveloped many things to be sure. Primarily we must leave our past behind us. Things happen that we don't understand but they happen for the best. For sure don't forget the past, but learn from it. thank you.

And by the way Mike, believe in your worth. thank you.

I will try to leave lost causes behind me, but if I don't go forward, how do I know if it's a "Lost Cause"?

.
Recently, I have had the fortune of being contacted from a distant past. Mikey is doing some multi million mile reflections. Gratefully I now Know someone has deemed me not a "Lost Cause". thank you.
.
I have been lost most of my life,thank God I bought the LMA. After so many miles, and so many "LOST CAUSES" I am home. thank you.

.
Were someone new to read the archives, someone may have the understanding that Mikey never forgot where he came from. I am the fella that left the country, but my past never left me. I don't live in it, I don't forget where I came from. That helps me everyday of my life. thank you.

.
Don't forget your past, and be very careful how you judge it. Remember you are not as smart as you used to be. thank you.


.
Thank You-----mikey

Monsoon Coming

.

.As I left work looking forward to my three days off (4 x 10 is great),@105" I noticed that it was sprinkling just a little. Sure is nice having the Acura restored again, 33MPG, love it. Can't wait for it to break in properly. Looks like a good time to turn on the wipers,hmmmm, that can't be good. Long time since the Acura & I have seen rain. A person just thinks he has repaired everything. That's fine,I will have to take wood cutter Brian into Jean for gas tomorrow, get some new wipers then, RIGHT.

.Ya know, for some reason I am in the mood for a "Bloody Mary", family members know.

What's this? Recession what stinking Recession? Just look @ what you can buy on unemployment!
.

.Unemployment, not for me!

I just want my Bloody Mary.

.

Open for 98yrs. Oh well, the Bloody Mary, was "OK", family members know.

Just when you thought life was too hard, stop and remember what good times you have had, then everything gets a little better.

.

Come on Monsoon, can't wait for more good times!

.

There won't be fire tonight, there will be a cold one enjoyed though, thinking of you always----mikey.

PS-------Love------m

The Forgotten War

.
.Here is a little piece of our Freedom. Uncle DeWayne used to show me these with the utmost pride. He brought these home from his tour in Korea.
. Of course I would have to get him in a talkative mood first. These fellas don't WEAR THEIR HEARTS ON THEIR SLEEVES.

So Sorry I didn't post this on the FOURTH. I cannot begin to tell you how proud I was to receive them. I am not worthy.

It comes as a shock, I went out for a cold one, woke up 35 years later, and asked what happened?

.Sure wish he could come out to the fire and have a cold one with me now--------Mikey

.PS----------Love Has No Experation Date-------m.

Here is a little piece of our Freedom.

I'll be watching you!

Mikey's back!

.Can you believe it, a real American BBQ?

One can always dream. .
Don't point that at me, I'm busy.
Perish the thought Jackie. And by the way JJ, don't eat the flowers!

You too Easter.

Are you the only good boy around here? Thought so.

Yes I have been busy round here, this place doesn't stop just because I am doing other things. No excuses, so much to do and I'm a lazy #@$%&*!.
Well, anyway I seem to have overcome the photo thing for now. Hope to pick up the posting pace from here on out. The work I do along with just getting by takes a toll, but I'm back with no excuses.

Perhaps a cold one and a fire on this FOURTH will make all the difference in the world! Be thinking of you all there-------Mikey.

Happy 4TH

.



Happy 4TH of July, writing in white is invisible ink, so blue will have to do. The back ground is white.



God Bless the USA. As usual everybody else hates us. Jealousy is such an ugly emotion.





.

The Fourth is a favorite holiday of mine, the world I have lived in calls it,"Cowboy Christmas". This is the weekend of more Rodeos than any other.





.

Cowboy Christmas always means more prize money available to win!





.

What could be more Free Enterprise than putting both your money and your ass on the line than that?



.

The Spirit of America lives with the "Cowboys", and believe me the title is not gender specific.


for some reason photos are not loading, stay tuned I'll be back.
