After a 2 year drought central Texas has finally received about two months worth of good moisture. As a result the hay cutters in our area were really getting overloaded. To make things tougher the rains have been sporadic and when you cut hay you need a couple of good dry days before you can rake and bail it. If it rains too much on the fresh cut hay Coastal Bermuda Hay ....it can be ruined. Nothing is sweeter than the smell of fresh hay. It is almost intoxicating. The cows love it too!

Approximately 400 individuals and a few dignitaries showed up at the Bush Presidential Library in College Station Texas on Monday to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall in Germany and to pay tribute to President George H. W. Bush for his great efforts in contributing to that fall. The President and former Secretary Of State Condoleeza Rice were both present at the celebrations. A joint effort between local Rotary Clubs helped to see this great event through and the local College Station high school band played for the crowd. The Berlin Wall was one hundred miles long and was the icon of the Soviet Empire until it came to an end thanks to Bush and a few others, like Gorbochev, and Helmut Kohl the former German Chancellor.

I enjoy dining at a local Mexican food restaurant and viewing photographs on the walls of the President and Mikhail Gorbachev chowing down on College Station cusine. The photos say so much about the kind of man Bush was .....a great leader, a forgiving man, a scholar, the family man, and always the gentleman.

Last week two underdogs surprised the world!The Texas Aggies trumped Texas Tech and Iowa State licked Nebraska. Today the 2 underdogs that whipped up on the big boys meet at Kyle field in College Station, at 2:30 pm. Why is this game important? Because both teams are going to be really fired up coming off similar victories over major teams. I expect this to be an exciting game with lots of xtra effort being put forth. We will be there for all the action and I hope the world recognizes that there is talent out there other than Texas and Oklahoma. Gig em Aggies!

This weekend is the annual Pioneer Days Celebration and fund raiser for the volunteer fire department and today's turnout seemed pretty substantial for this great little community just outside of Franklin, Texas at the Wheelock community. Ponytails and pistols, gospel and bluegrass, horse rides for the kids, lots of arts and crafts, and plenty of good BBQ were just part of the days festivities to celebrate the old pioneer days of Wheelock, Texas. Some lore and some facts say that Wheelock missed being the capital of Texas by just a couple of votes. Others say that in its heyday it was rather wild with over 20 saloons...of course a saloon could have consisted of a makeshift lemon aid stand type bar with one bottle , 2 glasses and a barkeep. Still today it is a wonderful and history filled little bedroom community. Many folks commute daily to Bryan-College Station and Texas A and M University from Wheelock.
