I drove down to the mailbox after taking Daddy his supper.  It was about 5:23 pm  and there was still quite a bit of light - certainly not pitch darkness.  We are making our way toward better days and spring!  The light has really been different lately and I am so grateful.  Those short, dark days are so hard... glad to be making progress every day.

Another evening with beautiful light - had to take some photos.

Jackson's friend, Caleb, came out to ride horses with him.  A beautiful afternoon for it!

Here is the sign that I ordered and picked up today.  I love it!


A gorgeous sunset!  I was just a bit past the perfect moment to capture the majesty of it, but this will do!

Lyceum at Truman - Rhonda Vincent

January 27, 2023

Rhonda Vincent and the Rage were part of the Lyceum series at Truman.  Daddy knew he wanted to attend this one and bring Dr. Wilson along as his guest.  It was a wonderful evening with 3 Missouri Squires in attendance!  :) 





Rhonda came over to visit with Daddy and Dr. Wilson after the show.  







I did not realize until later that Daddy's coat was buttoned up incorrectly.   I'm so sorry I didn't spot that in time... But these are 3 fine individuals right here.  It was a wonderful evening. 



Daddy, Rhonda, and Maggie
