Same Day But New Post

Yes I know I have already posted today but who makes the rules here? I was in chat tonight and getting along real peachy when all of a sudden the ol jam set in and I was once more all alone. So I made the decision...which I am able to do because I am the author of this story...to just post again and share some pictures of my grandchildren. Now you have to understand this is not all of them. I have two more stashed away in Kansas that I will present to you as soon as my son sends me some pictures that I can load on this journal. I am blessed to have nine G-kids that I am very proud of... and I show them often on this journal. They are everyone special to me by their own personalities...and not one of them the same. From the oldest to the youngest they all are so different and I would not have it any other way.

One day this journal will be all that they have of me and I hope that they read it and understand who I was and they know all my friends and what we all had in common. We all have the pioneer spirit that burned in so many brave souls hundreds of years ago. Who... if we had not been so fortunate to have we might never have been the great nation that we are. Exploring this wonderful land is and will always be a part of the American way. We should always keep that spirit of exploration in our everyday lives. I truly hope that all my children and grandchildren never stop wondering what is over the next rise. I know that we Dreamers are wired up that way and that is what makes our lives so interesting. It must have been the same feeling with the pioneers planning to leave out venturing across the plains not knowing what was over the next rise and when it was revealed to them the feeling they must have had seeing sights for the first time. I have been there and hope to be there over and over again.

Setting on a cold rock formation in Palo Durro canyon as a young boy I remember thinking of how it must have been setting in that same exact spot one hundred years ago and what would it be like. What would I be thinking ....maybe about someone one hundred years from now setting here and wondering what they would be thinking about. Really deep subject but I still have those feelings and thoughts when I am exploring. Wondering what happened here years before. Well I want to leave those feelings to be shared by my kids and one day maybe one of them will find themselves setting on that rock formation and they will know what happened here. I was there and they will feel the same way I did.

Below I have the pictures of some of the kids that are near and dear to me and I will add the other fellers when their dad gets me the pictures.
