Clear blue sky, cotton fields stretching as far as the eyes can see, and a pump still pumping that precious fuel. Gotta love this wonderful state!

A few updates...
Peggy Sharp is amazing her doctor with her recovery time. She is about two weeks ahead of what they expect with heart surgery like she had. The doctor told her she can drive her car again in two weeks. Good news for one who hates to be immobilized!
Remember the goodlooking white-haired gentleman (oh, I KNOW there were a lot of those at the class reunion!) that accompanied Irene Piel Batts? That was David, her husband. He fell day before yesterday and now has two hairline fractures in his pelvic bone. He says he feels fine until he tries to stand. I think it will be a few weeks before he's recovered enough to go back to work. Right now he is in the Ballinger Memorial Hospital. We wish him well.
Miss Kelly (who ate the bluebonnet seeds) recovered enough to wear her favorite "ELMO" costume and go trick or treating with her big brother "Darth Vader" Travis on Halloween. I'll bet the candy went down a lot easier than the seeds, and she didn't have to have her stomach pumped again!
Nancy and Jake Baker returned from a week in Las Vegas about the same as when they left. Jake said they won "a lot of money"... but then they lost it back to the casinos.
I have enquired about Gene Routh's foot, but have no response yet. (From him, not his foot!) If anyone is in touch with him, let us know how he is doing. We missed him as well as Rosalyn Hoelscher at the reunion. I know they were both disappointed they didn't get to come.
Any of you who are reading this and didn't get a current picture of yourself in the 50th Class Reunion handbook, send me a photo via email and I will post it here. That way we will know you when you come to the next reunion. Remember, we will meet again in 2010.
Has anyone won the lottery lately? Had a new grandbaby? Retired? Gone on a posh vacation? Share with us!
'Til next time,
Marilyn
