Howdy Star,

Figured some folks would like it .. and I forgot to mention that we have a

beach at Paris Landing .. and from that beach is a beautiful close up view

of a super nice bridge over the Tennessee River.

 

Lots of natural and historic areas here .. world famous Land Between the

Lakes .. Civil War battlefields and museums and such .. antique

architecture, etc.

 

The excitement here is Nature .. no bright lights and such .. that's why I'm

here now. I got tired of that rat race. Here we have no crime .. just

lotsa Suthran charm.

 

So .. if y'all vote for Paris, Tennessee .. we'll be waiting for you here.

:-)

 

Keep smiling. :-)

Hey Butch,

Glad you are here. One of these days I will make it to Paris, Tennessee

to taste some of your catfish. However, Texas has some pretty good catfish

here too. It seems that when we fought for our independence from Mexico in

1836 that a bunch of you Tennessee people (my relatives included) decided

to come and make Texas their home along with their culture. So we claim

catfish braggin rights too.

How is Alexander and your beautiful wife these days? I have been busy

and not been on the lists much for the past several months. I " inherited " a

small EMF (Electromagnetic Frequency) Shield business from a friend of mine

that has decided to get of the business. He got remarried and his

inventions don't do well with his new wife. So I took it over. I renamed it

to " EMF Shield Up " and gave it a new look. These little shields do work

well. I sold them " officially " for the first time this past weekend at a

local fair with my at products and they did better than I ever thought that

they would. It's amazing what will fall into your lap when you least expect

it and this is one of those things. I'm having fun with it as well as going

to make a steady little income on the side. I'm definitely not giving up my

at business but who knows what these little children will do.

Our son is now at the Marine Flight Training School in Pensacola. He is

learning how to be a flyboy. Aren't you glad, Butch that you stayed on the

ground as a policeman? You learned so much and saw so much.

Take care and I'll get to Paris, Tennessee one of these days. Now don't

forget that we have a Paris, Texas, too.

Rhavda

Well, unfortunately I'm not in your neighborhood cuz I'm up to try anything

new and I've never had hushpuppies and so far, I've not had catfish that

I've enjoyed. Very boney and not worth the trouble to eat... However, having

said that, I'm up for trying something new and you make it SOUND good.

 

And I love country sounds and smells, not all of them... Cow poo in massive

amounts STINKS. ;-)

 

Also having been hauled around from piller to post and old forts to museums

growing up... I'm afraid it's in me bones to enjoy the older sites... and

I've never been to a cival war battle field or museum, so I'd be up for that

as well.

 

So. this year is a bit dodgey at the mo. I STILL don't know (and won't know

for about another 10 days) if I'm moving this summer. If I AM, I won't be

going anywhere. If I'm NOT moving, well, I feel in me waters that some sort

of trip somewhere would be in order.

 

Whether or not that would be paris... who knows. I've not been to the South.

Have avoided it this long and I suppose some " edumocation " should be in

order.

 

I'll be keeping me eyes open on upcoming events etc

 

Although, sleeping in a BARN? You got a motel/hotel near by? I'm not sure

I'm up to sleeping in a BARN. And I like running water too. a BARN?
