Spring has Sprung!

This is the magnolia tree out front of our house. I do believe it is the precursor of what great weather we will have this Spring, I HOPE!

As for the eearthquake this morning, the girls and I slept right thru all the excitement. I guess they are saying at 4:38 am we had a 5.2 earthquake, hmmm, ok I guess.

But I was at work this morning around 10:15 this morning, we had an aftershock that I did experience. They say that one was around 4 or something. My computer monitors started shaking and then I heard all the chatter on the floor about it. Kinda cool, but I don't want to experience this little joy that Mother Nature likes to throw at us from time to time.

Hope ya'll have a great weekend!!!

On the Road again.....

So today I was out of the office, doing one of my wonderful events. I was working in conjunction with a somewhat local State Representative, well actually one of his flunkies, giving away energy efficient light bulbs. When I call this guy a flunky, I by no means mean it in a bad way, cause hell, to me if you aren't the main man or woman, you are basically someone's flunky, myself included.

So I have to travel across the Land of Lincoln to get to my destination of choice, this time in Arcola, IL. In the heart of Amish Country! YEE HAW!!!

I saw some things that I thought I must share with ya'll in the blog-o-shere, in case you have never been to Amish Country!

This first little sign was what I needed to what out for.....


EEEECK! there's one now!


Then as I was driving along, I stumbled upon this....Even I had never seen one of these before....I bet the Motor City doesn't have one of these....and altho it is a used lot, I wonder where they get the new, off the assembly line jobbers????

Who would have thunk that they have their very own used buggy-lot, where they buy, trade and sell those puppies....Now ya know.

Hope everyone has a great weekend, and look out for those buggy's or is it buggies!?? Whatever....
