Here we are at Summersville Lake in Nicholas County WV. Brian, our extension agent driver, gave us a wonderful tour of the county including the farm he was raised on.

Here’s the group Richard spoke to in Union, WV, Monroe County, right next to the Virginia border.

Richard and I left home Sunday afternoon, drove to Kansas City, MO, spent the night, got up at 4:30 am, flew out of KCI at 6:30 am, and arrived in Charleston, WV at noon on Monday. That started our wonderful speaking tour of four West Virginia counties!

Monday night we spoke in Union, WV in Monroe County which is one of the farthest south counties in WV. We found out that Monroe County is the birthplace of 4-H!!! Both Richard and I were in 4-H as kids and have done a lot with 4-H since, how cool to learn about it’s beginnings.

Last night Richard spoke in Ronceverte (near Lewisburg), and tonight we are supposed to speak in Summersville. I say “supposed to” because, when we woke this morning there was a quite a “school closing” list on the TV. I peaked outside and saw about 2-3 inches of snow on the ground and more coming by the minute!

Our final night of speaking will be in Ripley, which is north of Charleston.

I have been slow at writing these because I can’t get the hotel wireless to work on my laptop which has all the photos and programs and all that I that I use on web pages! However, Richard’s computer works just fine, so I’m able to do some internet stuff (such as update this page).

When we get back I will add some photos!

Last night John, the local extension agent and our “driver” said, after the meeting, that several of the landowners told him this was one of the best dinner meetings they had attended! Richard has been doing a great job!

A study conducted by UCLA’s Department of Psychiatry has revealed that the kind of face a woman finds attractive on a man can differ depending on where she is in her menstrual cycle.

For example: If she is ovulating, she is attracted to men with rugged and masculine features.

However, if she is pre-menstrual or menopausal, she tends to be more attracted to a man with scissors lodged in his temple and duct tape over his mouth while he is on fire.

No further studies are expected.

I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse. I can’t afford one. So, I’m wearing my garage door opener.

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans!

I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is ‘when you still have something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.’

I thought about making a fitness movie, for folks my age, and call it “Pumping Rust.”

I have gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That’ s when your chest is falling into your drawers!

I know, when people see a cat’s litter box, they always say, “Oh, have you got a cat?” Just once I want to say, “No, it’s for company!”

Employment application blanks always ask ‘who is to be notified in case of an emergency.’ I think you should write, “A Good Doctor!”

Why do they put pictures of criminals up in the Post Office? What are we supposed to do — write to these men? Why don’t they just put their pictures on the postage stamps so the mailmen could look for them while they deliver the mail? Or better yet, arrest them while they are taking their pictures!

I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older. Then, it dawned on me, they were cramming for their finals. As for me, I’m just hoping God grades on the curve.
