    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

  April 1, 2025 Carol’s Dragonfly Ranch Home of Carol’s Pond The weather has been rather nasty. Mother Nature has thrown a temper tantrum this past month. We were without power for about 2 days. But there has been high winds and hail. The hail was small, but it still made a lot of noise on the sunroom roof which is all glass. The sunroom had one panel that liked to leak, not much but enough I sat a bucket to catch the drips. But this past Veteran’s Day, my God son Russ Voorhies got on the roof and caulked the living you know what, out of it. IT STILL LEAKED!!!! However since the weather has warmed up, the caulk has settled and the leak is gone. It is supposed to rain for the next several days, so we shall see. I have spent the morning working in the yard picking up the dead limbs that came down in the storm. I got 4 wheel barrels full from the back yard alone. There is a load on the deck and the back walk going to the shop. The front yard wil...

  May 16, 2025 Carol’s Dragonfly Ranch Home of Carol’s Pond Well today is another anniversary. Sixty-one years ago today an old lady made a left turn and hit me broadside on my bicycle. That was on a Saturday about 11 A.M. It was Wednesday before I knew who I was and where I was. That wreck still causes me problems today. But while I was in the hospital, my friends Gene and Janet would come to visit me and Janet would go visit Carol. It was here I first heard of Carol. While I was still in the hospital, Carol was transferred to Sloan Kettering in New York for surgery. Gene and I both worked at the Avon Theater. Gene was the projectionist and I ran the popcorn machine. One night after the show I was cleaning the machine and heard voices coming down the stairway. I did not know anyone was in the balcony. I looked around the corner and there she was. It was the first time I ever saw Carol. I was in love immediately. And I still am in love with Ca...
