It was a wild and busy weekend with activities every day. Friday was a performance of “The Underpants” at the Main Street Theatre in Sulphur Springs, TX. At the Winnsboro Center for the Arts I enjoyed the Starry Starry Night fundraiser, with a wonderful dinner, lots of good cheer, and a great art auction. Sunday […]

It was a beautiful week here in East Texas. The sun was out for four days in a row. A record, as we have had weeks and weeks of gray skies and lots of rain. The good news is that we are no longer in a drought. The bad news is that it has been

Slim Randles is here as Wednesday’s Guest, sharing a story about “Windy” Wilson. Windy isn’t one of the regulars down at the Mule Barn Truck Stop, but when he comes by, it’s always an interesting encounter.

Oh, poor Exxon Mobil. They aren’t taking in the millions anymore since gas prices have gone down. But I was shocked to read that they are planning to raise billions with a bond issue. Then I read this article by Nicholas Sakelaris in the Dallas Morning News, and understood the money isn’t to pay workers.

My first Wednesday’s Guest on this new blog site was JD Core, a fellow mystery writer and a terrific supporter of other authors. Since I wasn’t experienced with WordPress and how it differs from Blogger, I posted the blog in the wrong place. When I figured that out today, I decided to repost this so
