throwing stones...

Tnis top picture is the awesome inside of the Rogues Hollow Historical Society...really, this isn't a museum or anything, the police chief from 25 years ago lives here! (or maybe he was the sheriff from then...). He's retired now, and lives here as the caretaker of the hollow!


...more funstuff on Crybaby Bridge...

And this is the outside of the building....the caretaker lives in the top floor...

I heard a story this week about an old king in a small area in Africa. He and his wife, who is, of course, the queen, lived in a hut in the middle of the jungle. He was quite the collector of old royal artifacts, old crowns, scepters, anything a king should have. One day, it started to storm, and the wind was whipping around and everything. His wife got scared and ran outside to see if there was anybody that could help, cuz the hut was collapsing! All of a sudden there was a tremendous CRASH, and she turned around to see the king crawling out from under a pile of "kingly" furniture and the grass they had made their hut from. After shaking his head, and dusting himself off, he noticed a villager walking up to them. The king said he wasn't sure what had happened to cause that mess. The villager just shrugged his shoulders, and said...
"Just goes to show you...people who live in grass houses shouldn't stow thrones..."
sj, that was for you!
