Memories of the 1960's. Drinking from the garden hose, Playing outside till it was time for supper or it got dark-whichever came first. Box fans, heat rash, Church on Sunday and one family black & white television with 3 channels. Time passes and times sure have changed. Welcome to my world. Stories about growing up in Texas. New adventures and the struggle to remain relevant in the lives of my adult children.

What's on tonight
When I was a little girl I thought television was just the greatest invention ever. I could get lost in those silly shows. I would ask my Dad, "what's on tonight?" and he would always respond "the moon and the stars". I can still hear his voice and see his face. He would take us kids outside and point out the Big and Little Dipper. We would all marvel at the moon and Dad would talk about where it was in its cycle, full moon, half moon, piece of pie. We did get to watch TV but my Dad just wanted us to appreciate and possibly be as amazed as he was at God's creation. There is a big beautiful moon out. Thanks Dad, I know what's on tonight. kisses
