    I was so happy to see you on my Readers List this morning, but so sad to read it. I think you were blessed to meet Carol, and though it will seem like a long wait, she will be waiting for you in Heaven.

      Wow. So many years ago. I remember seeing her in school. I will never forget that day when it was announced over the speaker. Just broke my heart. Curtis is in Colorado and this is 1st time in 58 years that we haven't been together. I think he will be coming back this week

Carol's Dragon Fly Ranch home of Carol's Pond March 7, 2021 Hopefully hibernation season is over. It appears that spring has sprung. There were a lot of daffodils blooming in the side ditch but a hard rain beat about all of the blooms off the stems. But more popped up, including the ones in Carol's yard. Also there are tiny white flowers and some blue and purple ones as well and of course my favorite, dandelions. During that cold snap, Carol's Pond froze over and that is not acceptable at all. Mother Nature are you listening? There were several ducks that stuck around most of the winter, but I have not seen them today. They were very fast swimmers, fast enough to create a good wake behind them. I dubbed them the Shore Patrol. Those of you that were in the military know what the shore patrol is. For those that weren't, it is Naval Military Police. There has also been a darter around this spring. A darter is a type of cormorant and its feathers a...

  August 10, 2025 Carol’s Dragonfly Ranch Home of Carol’s Pond It has been rather quiet around here. I think the heat is the culprit. All of my livestock, Sam, Jr, Samantha and Samatha Jane are in hiding, But there are some new members around. Last week I saw a pair of Roadrunners. Normally I only see one at a time. I hope they settle in and stay. They are pretty and very tall. The door from the sunroom is a full length glass or from 6 inches off the floor to the top. The first time a roadrunner came up and stuck his head right up to the glass, checking out my living conditions. Kind of like barracks inspection in the USAF. They are not afraid. My neighbors across the street have 4 yapping mutts, ankle biters that bark all the time. It they think someone in China is going to fart, they bark. The people on the east side of me have 2 dogs. One is a super stupid Schnauzer and the other is part great dane and part pitbull. The Schnauzer barks ever...

  February 1, 2022 Carol's Dragon Fly Ranch Home of Carol's Pond The last week of January is my anniversary week. Some of them are enjoyable anniversaries and some suck really bad. That may be gross but it is the only way to say it. But before we get to the description of the anniversaries, there is some other news. Last week I looked in the back yard and there were hundreds of Purple Grackles or common blackbirds. I assume there are working their way north in anticipation of spring. I hope they are right. And there were some ducks that stopped in today. There were only 5 or 6. Something startled them and off they went. I seldom see ducks. Lake Bob Sandlin is on the west side of Mt. Pleasant and I suspect most stop there rather than on a small pond. Also last week, I had an MRI of my head and received some excellent news. The scan did NOT indicate Lewy-Body Dementia. LB is a very aggressive type of dementia. I will have 2 more scans to try and determin...
