I have lived in Boling off and on for over half a century. In some ways it seems that time stands still here. Many things are as they were 75 years ago. Others have been changed forever by technology. Some times it is hard to tell which is which.

Well, I guess I will need to change the name of this blog since I no longer live in Boling, Texas. I finally got to where the yard and garden were a little too much so I will consider this my second retirement.
Goodbye Boling. Goodbye to the place where most everyone had a nick name. Goodbye Booger Red, Hatchet, Hammerhead, Bones, Will Rogers, Nuts, Peckerwood, Fatty, Chick, Stogie, So So, Bunker, Bathead, Painter, Rusty, Ham, Bones, Cattle King, Boogie, Strawberry Roan, Pee Wee, Booth, Slim, Popeye, Butch, Hiney, Corky, Charlie Boy, Spider, Tubby, Coonrod, Kinky, Doc, Red, Cat, and Buckshot. I knew them all.
My new home is a place called Ivy Point in Cypress, Texas.
They let me fly the drone as long as I keep it out of the pool. The place sounded like a war zone on July 4. Big city living with every store you ever heard of. A giant HEB and a giant Kroger almost within walking distance. Hundreds of restaurants to try.I am determined to update this blog more often than in the past. I will ramble on about whatever comes to mind.
